Friendly front desk staff

The hotel is okay. It's not the Marriott but it does have free breakfast every day. The front desk staff is very helpful (probably the best part of my stay). Unfortunately, some of the other guest got extremely rowdy while I was there. I don't suppose that is a normal occurrence.

Just okay.

The room smelled like cigarette smoke, shower drain did not work and the fridge was moldy. If you’re booking for more than 1 person, be prepared to ask for more pillows because I only had 2 between my partner and I and they were totally different in comfort level and brand. I just needed a cheap stay, so it wasn’t the end of the world, but lack of cleanliness was a bit disturbing. Staff were super kind and attentive though!!!
