The manager was helpful. He told us about local parking options! and family entertainment! I found that very accommodating. When he saw our daughter, he gave us snacks for the bedroom. He also had many DVDs we could use.

The room had a slightly musty smell.

Basic Stay with Some Issues

good locationbroken windownon-closing window

The location was good as it was close to where I needed to be.

The window in my room was broken and would not close properly. This meant I was cold at night. The radiator also did not work so I had to use a heater to keep warm. This broken window also let in a lot of noise early in the morning.
