Upon entry into my room, noticeable musky smell like dingy old wer basement. Had to open door for several hours to get the stanky smell out. Very dated room. No sound insulation at all so you can hear all noises, talking, foot steps etc. Room cleanliness or entire common area, very clean. Would not recommend. Pay more to stay elsewhere next time.
