I have definitely stayed at worse places, but this place still left a lot to be desired. The rooms were very high tech which was cool, but they clearly have a sewage issue so the toilet reeked of sewage throughout our stay. This might not be such a huge deal in other hotels, but the rooms here are tiny so we were sleeping approximately three feet (and one shower curtain) away from the stinky toilet. Also, you can hear rats scurrying around in the duct work. But on the bright side, the temperature was very easy to control, and they had multiple curtain options for optimal darkness.
