The shower was really good, I must admit.

The carpets were stained and frankly, pretty dirty. The room felt cramped because it had only one chair. I had trouble finding space for my clothes and luggage.

Check-in was quick. I was given a room with an extra bed. My daughter appreciated this gesture. The beds were comfortable. Staff were friendly during both check-in and check-out.

My room was never cleaned. I did not receive fresh towels. Tea bags were not replenished. I only had two tea bags upon arrival.
