Everything was great in the check-in process and the room. However, we were on the 2nd floor and it was a snowy, cold weekend. So the stairs going up were snow-covered and needed to be cleared of ice and snow build-up. Especially for us old folks!

It was a surprise that this is a self check in. It turned out ok. I got quick responses and uploaded my ID credit cards easily. Room is clean. Guests came in mid night to the unit above mine. I was kept awake due to the noise from people walking around and chatting. The heating fan was loud. Showers lukewarm for the most part.
