8/10 Very good

Did not get a chance to interact with the staff due to a very late check in/arrival, but they did reach out before hand with clear instructions on getting in the building and into the room. Overall good stay. Traveled with family (small children). The room was nice but you could tell a few things needed to be fixed - broken cabinet, crooked TV stand, broken blinds, etc. Room was clean and pleasantly decorated. Would definitely stay again!
