The guy at the front desk was very helpful. The room was clean and the bed comfortable. There was a small refrigerator and a microwave but no coffee maker. There were only two paper cups and nothing for keeping ice. The breakfast was just pasties and make your own waffle. There are lots of restaurants near the hotel. For the price, you get what you pay for there. No frills and not a pleasant area but safe.
