It was in a great location, staff extremely nice. The just need to clean both sides of the bed
Pros:

It was in a great location.

Cons:

The room was clean until my pillow fell on the part of the bed against the wall. About 10 inches between wall and bed. There were dust bunny’s and lots of dirt. So much dust. They don’t clean on one side of the bed. They also don’t have wash cloths.

Pros:

Jó volt , bár a szoba nagyon kicsi volt, sokkal kisebb mint a képeken. Ár-érték arányban ok.
