Generally clean, people were nice, room was as expected for the price. I would stay there again. There were a few items that knock it from being 5/5, the main of which was the door to the bedroom wouldn't close all the way. A bit annoying considering the separate room was a factor in selecting this room/hotel.

Room was in good condition...and staff friendly. But the heat in the room did not work properly...and that was true not only in our room, but in the room occupied by our travelling companions. That should be looked into! Thanks for a pleasant stay!
