"The room was clean, albeit a bit small. The walls are practically paper thin so bring a pair of noise cancelling headphones. Despite the noise, it is a perfectly nice place to stay and relatively inexpensive, as well as being in a great location. If you are on a budget, then it is worth staying here. "

"The unit was great, a little warm, but probably not often a problem. Kitchen was nice, loved the coffee provided, the bed was super comfortable, and the wifi was great. I only had a problem with the bathroom, if the transition at the door can be removed and a thinner mirror put in that would be great."
