Cute place!
Pros:

Staff was extremely friendly and helpful upon arrival.
The room was clean and lighting was great. I loved the mini fridge that had a freezer section to it. A strip charger was supplied at the bedside table and was very nice to have for charging devices.

Cons:

Sink had a slow drain and the shower was so small (I kept worrying about flooding the bathroom although that did not happen lol)
Bed was adequate but not very comfortable. TV was so small, but it was still nice to have with lots of channels and a guide.

At least it was clean.
Pros:

Very clean and friendly staff, but the bed and pillows are like concrete and the walls are so thin, a snoring neighbor on one side, and a little kid screaming and banging on the connection door on the other side, kept us up LITERALLY ALL NIGHT

Cons:

Concrete bed, flat pillows, and thin walls.
