small rooms, some issues

small room alarm system

the location was good. it was near a lot of things.

the room was way too small. it was hard to even open my suitcase. there was a green light on the ceiling and it was like a disco when i turned the lights off, i did not sleep well. they should change that alarm system.

Compact and Efficient Stay!

daily amenities helpful staff convenient plugs

I appreciate the daily replacement of toothbrushes and razors. The staff allowed us to store our luggage before check-in and after check-out, very helpful. Plugs and light switches were conveniently located near the bed.

The STREET outside was quite noisy, even on a higher floor. This made it difficult to sleep soundly at times, even with earplugs.
