Overall we had a nice stay, we booked last minuet so options were a but limited. The staff were all super nice and helpful when we needed anything. Did have to change rooms but it was an easy switch. Not the cleanest and doesn’t have a lot of amenities, also the surrounding neighborhoods are kind of sketch but the hotel location is in a semi good central area. If you need something affordable and last minuet I would recommend. Staff really stood out to us though! Very very nice :)
