Liked: Cleanliness

Ok, but not our favorite place.

It was ok. Really noisy at night with other people coming in late at night. They were very inconsiderate about others sleeping at 11:30pm. Made to pick out breakfast, but wasn’t the breakfast we ordered. Still, what we got was just ok. They had some smelly like thing in the room. Had to place them on the outside window ledge, because it gave us a headache.
