The room was clean, updated and the bathroom was very nice. Shower worked great and the soap/shampoo dispensers are a nice option (in case you left yours at home).

Yes the toilet seat was broken and it was also not properly clean. The check in time wasn’t what was advertised. The only thing that was pleasant was the staff upon arrival.
