It was acceptable, advised in a way that I felt wasn’t shown at the property
Pros:

Clean, people nice, good location and access was decent to off street parking

Cons:

Beds were horrible I slept in each bed trying to find one that was ok, each bed was worn in angles and couldn’t lay flat, off street parking was listed then when arrived it was extra 9 per night.. included breakfast was very very average, pastries stale, juice gave me heartburn everyday I tried watering it down but acidity could take paint off.. no restaurant or room service one morning there was ambulance and police there someone died… seriously a dead person! Not a hotel fault but still could have been the OJ… unsure..
