The room was clean and comfortable. Staff was very friendly. This space is very cool and hip. Bathrooms could use some attention (toilets were bady soiled with yellow stains and brown „stuff” and some tp was available only in two stalls), but for the price I think it was a great value. I had some neighbors that decided to have a couples fight at 11pm that ended up with solid screaming and crying and then they decided to listen to some music full on. I finally got up and asked them to keep it down. There’s no staff on site to help so something to consider. Overall, very pleasant stay and I’d recommend it to anyone that doesn’t have very high expectations, but is looking for clean, safe and cheap place to stay.

Room didn’t seem properly cleaned. A lot of things were pretty dusty. There was food residue on the silverware and glasses, some sticky stuff on the floor, and I found chips on the floor. I don’t know if the ac is broken, but I tried to turn it on for about 20 minutes and couldn’t figure out how. Other than that, I liked the style of the room, and the sheets were clean
