faulty key card open shower
The key card failed multiple times (i'm not EVEN kidding). It took several attempts to get into my room each evening. the shower opened directly into the bedroom, a little odd. There was not even a screen.

Super Convenient and Clean!

ideal location comfortable bed
The location proved ideal for a quick trip. I noticed it was super close to transport links, this made getting around easy. The room was very clean and the bed provided me with a comfortable night's sleep. I appreciated the desktop fan included because that helped maintain a cool temperature.
The hallways had a noticeable cigarette smoke smell, this was not great, even though I knew it's a non-smoking hotel. Other than this, the experience was top tier and I would come again.
