For a quick one night stay it was good… the a/c worked really well .. the shower was quite hot enough but was adequate.. room a little small but it wasn’t bad .. really quiet… the door to room 102 could use some weatherstripping since i could see light coming through… tv is adequate but nothing special… was getting an analog signal.
