Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
Checking was fast, The coffee cups in room were dirty Ac did not cool very well, could be cleaner. Curtain did not block out a-lot of light, as it was to short for the window. Road noise was bad due to gaps around doors and ac unit. It was a quick place for a one night stay. But i did not get much sleep.
