The room was clean, would have been nice if the establishment had a dresser, and the cosmetic of the bathroom and tub had huge cracks that the plaster was awful looking, kitchen was equipped with the basic essentials, but could use a spatula. The area was quite and walking distance to the public transportation. But overall I am happy with my stay. And the staff very pleasant.
