surprisingly neat stay

the hotel had a communal kitchen and laundry, useful for longer stays. the front desk staff were genuinely friendly and always ready to assist with directions and recommendations. i found the underground parking convenient, although it costs $30 per day (i did find street parking nearby a few times). the rooms felt modern and clean, a nice surprise.

i noticed a faint smell of moisture in the hallways, but it wasn't too bothersome.
