They put me in an unacceptable room next to noisy machinery that droned on all night. Refused to refund for the room. I checked out 2 days early despite their refusal to give me a refund for paying in advance.

Luggage storage was an easy process. Room was fairly clean besides a few spots in the corner of the showers and some usual wear and tear around the door and on the TV remote. Didn't get housekeeping while I was there but I was in the room when they called me in the early afternoon to ask if I needed anything. I did get upgraded to a queen room which was still fairly small. Glad I got upgraded because I don't know if I could have handled the smaller room that I booked. Overall a solid 4.5 out of 5 stars

The breakfast was passable but the staff person didn’t speak English so it was difficult to find out what was available. We didn’t realize we could have eggs so we had pastry.

Me ofrecieron una habitación más grande, pero estaba justo al lado del elevador, lo que prácticamente hizo imposible dormir. El ruido constante de las máquinas y del propio elevador resultó muy molesto. Además, aunque la habitación era más amplia, tenía una litera y el espacio resultaba reducido e incómodo. He estado en otras habitaciones del mismo hotel y la experiencia ha sido mucho mejor, por lo que esta estancia fue una excepción desafortunada.
