ok place for the price but I stayed 3 nights and the room was never made up or cleaned so don't expect it. No coffee maker in the room but did have a refrigerator and microwave oven so that was good. Overall I just needed a place to sleep and this place did provide that.

The only staff I interacted with was the front desk and food service. Both were friendly and helpful. Front desk helped me connect with the internet, and food service accommodated special requests. Both were very much appreciated.
