Very low budget and it shows. No elevator so be ready to lug your bags up the steps. Check your coffee machine for mold before you use it. Definitely won’t be back there.

The large comfortable room, really more like a junior suite, was nice. Breakfast was not. Very few items and coffee was mediocre at best.
