limited equipment early closure
the gym was rather disappointing. it offered few opportunities for a comprehensive workout. i found only two treadmills and a small selection of free weights there. the bar closed quite early each evening. i would have appreciated a nightcap.

The location was convenient, close to many restaurants. the staff was very polite and helpful. Johnny assisted with luggage. the room was clean, and the bed was comfortable.
the room i booked was larger on the website, though it was smaller in reality. the shower did not drain quickly after a short use. decor and amenities were basic. the room was very hot.

amazing stay!

elevator security clean room
the room was very clean. It was refreshed daily regardless of the time i returned. elevator security measures added a sense of safety. Key access was required for specific floors and the lobby.
the bathroom door didn't lock properly, a minor inconvenience. water also didn't drain smoothly in the sink. these are issues i hope will be addressed .
