Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Overall an affordable and acceptable option for lodging if you're trying to keep a low budget. Read a lot about the air mattress, I found them to be fairly comfortable. People in the rooms were mindful and kept noise down to a minimum, the staff I interacted with were friendly and nice. One thing which was misleading was that they have individual rooms, 4, 6 and more beds per room, they actually don't, they have over 8 bunk beds in each room, but I think that this is an error on Expedia's end. I didn't have any issues with my stay there, it was affordable and served it's purpose. I would stay there again.
