Decent for a quick rest, but not for a long stay.
Pros:

The location was great!

Cons:

Room was not entirely cleaned, room was humid and never fully adjusted, and the tvs must be super outdated as they are very very grainy. The bathroom had trash in the corner and a towel on the floor behind the door. So I’m not sure if the bathroom was even cleaned.
