Pros:

The location is excellent, close to the train station, making it convenient to go anywhere. It’s near London Court, with restaurants around, and the hotel is right next to a convenience store.

Cons:

Staff varied from day to day, and a few were less than friendly. The beds were worn out and sagged in the middle, making sleep uncomfortable—definitely in need of replacement. On the positive side, the shower room was spacious and comfortable.
