The rooms were dirty, club/bar / party with thumping music right under our room. My blanket had yellow stains and the pillows are half size not a full pillow size. It was not the greatest hotel but a cheap crash pad. Also for our room we had to body slam the door open each time as it was stuck and wouldn’t open. Pay a little more and go to a reputable place.
