Clean but very minimal without AC. Trashcan is only in the bathroom. It says breakfast is offered on Expedia but it’s not; they only give you a 15% off coupon. Key card is very susceptible to malfunctioning (by even a short contact with your phone), which I don’t understand. I understand because the price is cheap but they should’ve been honest about the breakfast, because that was the reason I picked this place.

Disliked: Amenities
The hotel room was generally clean and the lady at the reception desk was very helpful. However, for the price we paid, I think I expected more amenities like a mini fridge and more than one power outlet. Also, the shelf above the bathroom sink was too low, so I had some issues using the faucet.
