For the price I paid it was sufficient, breakfast was great, room was clean, bed was comfy, water was hot. Drawbacks: broken window blinds/no curtains- I could see people walking by when I was on the ground floor and I’m sure they could see me (especially when I’m sleeping). I guess you need to book a deluxe room to get a mini fridge and microwave, but even for basic I was expecting a coffee maker and an end table? I had to pull over the chair to the bed to set my things on. There was a desk, but it looked like the edges had been chewed on. The floor had stains, and I’m worried what I would find if I took the sheets off of the bed (the spring set and stand were all chewed up as well). If you’re look for something for under $100, this is it.
