Very quick overnight stay on a weekend. Check-in was smooth, the room was clean and comfortable. The bathroom (shower) was a bit dated, but otherwise a pleasant stay. Would recommend this hotel to others!

First room had a cockroach. It also had an adjoining room door. We heard and understood our next door neighbor’s phone conversation, then their chosen tv program. The cockroach put me over the edge. The desk offered a different room on a higher floor, which we accepted. As we were leaving the manager offered extra points but failed to actually put them on our account.

Was good, but before check out at 11am a housekeeper walked into our room after knocking very lightly, didn’t even think twice about the noise. My girlfriend was naked in bed and I was barely dressed. Honestly unacceptable
