6/10 Good

The room was adequate, but somewhat worn. It was clean. We did not see staff as it was a remote entry. The room smelled of stale smoke, which was difficult for us.

6/10 Good

I would not stay here again. It is too close to a road with a lot of loud trucks and motorcycles drivi g past all night. The room was small and the bathroom and shower were VERY small. The beds were on metal frame with no headboard and quite uncomfortable - plus flat pillows. We liked the easy contactless check-in, though I had to call the hotel because they didn’t email the room number and entry code I was supposed to receive. The room was very clean and the fridge and A/C worked great. Overall, it was just not comfortable for us at all and we got no sleep.

The room was clean. No coffee available in the room or in the lobby, staff suggested the coffee shop down the block. Came back to the hotel after dinner and found the lobby desk closed with a rollup door.
