It's disappointing.
Pros:

The breakfast and the staff.

Cons:

We were put to a room were other guests beside us are so noisy and we can't sleep. It's so inconvenient to us because the next day I have an appointment that I missed because we did not slept well the night before.

Not recommended
Pros:

location was convenient enough. And the staff were for the most part ok, although they weren't overly excited to actually fix the problems.

Cons:

The beds were uncomfortable at best. The walls were super thin... the party wasn't my cup of tea to join so I suffered in silence the first night. The plumbing... HORRIBLE. The shower went from ice cold to scalding and back again. There was no middle ground. It was so hot, that had a child or person with reduced mobility have used the shower they would have received 2nd degree burns at best. When I approached the front desk about the issue they offered to switch rooms. The second room, albeit better, was not great.
