Passable
Pros:

Tight squeeze but comfortable as long as you keep the door closed to dim traffic noise and in good location.

Cons:

Seemed like a lack of soundproofing. There was noise from other rooms.
Best lemon lime and bitters but the 1/2 price happy hour cocktail kahlua and milk was so weak didn’t bother drinking it.
