Nice staff and building. The biggest thing was just horrible lighting in the room. No idea how architects, electricians, and the building owner couldn’t have seen that the room needed a few more lights. Also there was a bit of street noise from below.

So welcoming from the outside. Convenient site. There is no interaction with staff as everything is self check-in and check- out, however there was a pleasant girl at reception who spoke politely as we left. The rooms and bedding are clean but the carpets need attention. There was a damp smell in hall. I would stay again for location and convenience.
