Pros:

Location was great, room was rather big

Cons:

We stayed at this hotel as a group of three women in an unfamiliar city, and the entire experience left us feeling incredibly uncomfortable and unsafe. I would absolutely not recommend this place unless you are an extremely deep sleeper and don’t mind a complete lack of cleanliness and privacy.
The room conditions were highly disappointing. Upon arrival, we found hair already on the beds, and the rest of the space was generally very dirty. It was completely obvious that nobody had vacuumed under the beds in a long time—though thank goodness we didn’t find any bedbugs. To make matters worse, the beds were very narrow and highly uncomfortable, and the entire hotel felt extremely hot and stuffy. Noise was another major issue. The windows let in an extreme amount of sound from the outside, and there was a massive gap under the door. Whenever anyone talked in the hallway, it echoed so loudly it sounded exactly as if they were standing right inside our room.
The absolute worst part of our stay, however, was the severe breach of privacy. On the day of our check-out (which was at 11:00 AM), staff members walked into our room twice while we were still sleeping, completely ignoring the "Do Not Disturb" sign on the door. Instead of checking their system at the front desk to see if we had checked out, they just barged in to see if we were still there. Walking into a room where three sleeping women are staying is completely unacceptable and felt like a major violation of our privacy. The cleaning staff desperately needs to learn basic boundaries. We only exchanged two sentences with the front desk staff, so we cannot evaluate them, but the housekeeping and room quality are awful.
