Nice cold room, modern updates, however a bit of rust in the bathroom. Also a lot of noise when trying to fall asleep a little early 9ish, but it wasnt all night. Staff was kind, when asking for a preferred first floor, she was accommodating. Oh, and the blues in decoration were nice.

Our room smelled clean when we got there. Bedsheets and towels were clean. However, it's a very old room and could use a deep renovation. Only the floors look to have been updated. The curtains actually had mold spots on them by the window AC. Door was very old and damaged, bathroom door was also split in two damaged. Shower head needs descaling, water sprays outside. The hair dryer was fried, melted, didn't look safe to use. Old fridge and table rusted. Some outlets didn't work. The sink drain smelled very bad of sewer. Bed was not comfortable for me. Just over all, the property needs maintenance. But we needed somewhere cheap to spend the night and this was what we went with. I've stayed here before in better rooms, but I'm guessing not all of them are updated, this one was definitely not.

Our stay was unfortunately disappointing. The property itself looks very outdated, and the room did not feel as clean as expected. When we first walked in, there was a very strong chemical smell that lingered for a while. We also noticed dirty windows and a mirror that hadn’t been properly cleaned. The bathroom was another concern, as we found a small roach during our stay. In addition, the mini fridge in our room was broken, which was inconvenient. The staff was somewhat helpful when we needed assistance, but our check-in experience left a bad first impression. We arrived early to ask if an early check-in was available, and instead of simply telling us it wasn’t, we were spoken to rudely and repeatedly told that check-in was at 3:00 PM. We completely understand if early check-in isn’t possible, but there are much more professional ways to communicate that. The one highlight of our stay was the balcony, which had a nice view and was the best part of the room. Overall, while the location and balcony were enjoyable, the cleanliness, maintenance issues, and customer service would make us think twice before staying here again.
