Overall the place is dated. Bed was only so-so. Breakfast was nothing to write home about. Staff however was quite helpful. Can’t recommend this place.

Very friendly and helpful staff. Clean. Comfortable beds. Great water pressure in shower. Nice breakfast.
Thin doors so a bit noisy.
Room was clean as always, starting to get a bit outdated though and the TV situation is insane...nothing but streaming apps that you need to pay for mostly. Staff is always very nice. Been staying here for a few years now.
