4/10 Fair

A smoking room was incorrectly booked and when I asked about non-smoking I was told it would cost more than paid on reservation. Room was on highway and nosiy and very nosiy occupans of room on 2nd floor. Temperature control not working - not responding to changes.

8/10 Very good

Manager & housekeeping was pleasant. My only complaint is that there was no room on 1st floor available. No elevator. Bed was very comfortable but pillows were flat. Microwave and mini refrigerator worked well.

I liked the property, its different. However, the wifi needs some love. Used my hot spot because the wifi suffers from low performance.
