The room was very clean. The bed was comfortable. The north-side location kept the room quiet and cool. Perfect during the heat wave! It was so nice to have a quiet, cool retreat after a long day.

an uneven experience

cigarette burnsdisruptive noise
the room showed definite signs of wear. the curtains had some tears and were coming away from the windows. i also noticed cigarette burns on the carpet. i found that quite disappointing and it affected my overall impression. the noise from the car park at night was also disruptive. people were shouting and banging on doors. this.

Average Stay with Noticeable Issues

The location was convenient for my business trip. There was also ample free parking available on the premises.
I found the room quite untidy upon arrival. The carpet had several visible stains and the table felt sticky to the touch I also noticed a moldy smell in the bathroom that was unpleasant.
