Below average - it’s more of a motel than a hotel
Pros:

I like that it’s close to gateway and easy access

Cons:

It’s not clean or up to standard the towels smell like bleach… literally bleach.There is no phone in my room because not all rooms have a phone but when I booked it stated it did.

The window wouldn’t open fully .

The shower was dirty and had to get cleaned
