Clean and friendly
Pros:

The staff was friendly, it was clean the location works well for me.My room was cleaned every day.

Cons:

The room needs updating. there was some noise from the floor above one night. It was easy to hear footsteps. Maybe it was just a rowdy bunch. The breakfast was mediocre. There is no coffee machine in the room. You had to request it at the desk so then carry it to the room and set it up.
