Would return but please control noise.
Pros:

Clean, comfortable and convenient.

Cons:

There was a group that was making a noise at 6am. Banging on each other doors, the leader calling them while standing in the hallway - very noisy.
The fire detector in 1 room was going on and off the whole night. No one attended to all this racket.
