8/10 Good
"I really enjoyed my stay. The location was very convenient and my room was really nice overall. My only issues really were the bathroom. There was some mold or dark warped spots on the front of the tub portion of the shower. I assume it’s because the water leaks out of the shower, no matter how hard you try to prevent it. Additionally, the water temperature was very inconsistent, sometimes dropping pretty cold or spiking to extremely hot temperatures that make you move out of the water itself until it goes back to normal. Aside from the shower, the property was great. A little noisy at night, as expected, but I was only on the second floor so higher rooms might be a little less noisy. The staff was really kind and helpful too. I would stay here again."
