Noisy, there was an odor i just couldn't get my finger on it. 2 floors above, a fight broke out and I could hear it down stairs, I am not sure if the police were called. Not a good place to stay if you don't have something to drown out the noise. And the staff doesn't care if you're an elite member or not, they'll charge you 22 dollars per person for the breakfast and charge you to PARK your car there.

The “fitness center” is actually very pathetic. There’s one working bench and the whole chest press multifunctional machine is broken. Dumbbells go up to 40lbs so really can’t do much as an adult male. Also some of the guests are a bit shaky. I witnessed a fight that broke out which was very off putting and was at 3am and cops showed up and I wasn’t able to go back to sleep until 5am. I was late for my morning tasks and appointments. The complimentary breakfast was a nice addition I enjoyed the breakfast burrito and the lady at the restaurant was attentive. Overall 3.5/5. Not the best experience overall. Also shoutout to the cleaning crew they were awesome. Cleaned my room like clockwork everyday during my stay and replenished the tea and towels.
Only machine they had and it was broken with no sign on it to tell guests they’re fixing it.

I really like the location of the hotel. Having a nice place to rest so close to the airport is amazing. And having a McDonald’s literally behind the corner is amazing too. Very clean and confortable. I truly appreciate the shuttle every 30 minutes. Such a nice experience!

The hotel is nice but very noisey. Every morning a lot of noise, starting at 730am. Plus a lot of noise in the hallways.

The airport was easy to find at the hotel. Staff was very polite and it walking distance to metro of you want. The only negative thing is the overall cleanliness. When I got there there's was water on the bathroom floor, a baby roach on the mattress and sometimes the toilet doesn't gather water to flush.
