One of the cleanest feeling budget hotels I have been too. Overall the decor has a modern feel, though you can tell a few corners have been cut. The after hours front desk experience was very interesting: they have a machine that can handle check-in and check-out while a person on zoom talks to you and scans your ID/credit card. It takes a bit longer, but I didn't mind too much.

During booking process I had requested for 2nd floor for a quieter room and received confirmation from hotel, but it ended up became 1st floor and no other option when checking-in, had bad experience due to noise and fly inside the room.

1. The shower knob is broken. You just can't adjust water temperature with ease. 2. The toilet is loose. It moves up and down when you sit on it. 3. There is not even a desk to put your laptop so that you can work in the room.

The Wafer 450 Hotel wasn't bad. The check in process was interesting & efficient.There was something that kept periodically banging through out the night in the room. We never figured out what it was.
