Not much, but it will get it done.

The air conditioning did not work. The TV is the size of a IPad and the restroom is a tight squeeze. Besides that the room was clean. It was pretty quiet all night.

Meredith

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
We liked the location, the room was insulated, everything was very clean and comfortable. However, the neighbors were so noisy and you felt like you were in their room with them. We also had a broken thermostat and the larger of the two windows would not open. Everything else about the room was great. It felt safe, clean, and I would stay there again, but make sure we had a room with a working thermostat, less neighbors, and windows that opened.

the rooms were nice except they did not have air conditioning which we knew from the description. We only had one incident when the manager on duty scared us by coming into our room at 1:30am when we were in a deep sleep and neither of us were able to get back to sleep until about 7:00am.
