"I really wanted to like this place because the suites themselves were well-maintained, but several major issues made for a pretty frustrating stay.
The Room & Noise
While the room was clean, it was impossible to get any rest. The street noise is incredibly loud and bleeds right through the windows and walls. If you are a light sleeper, be warned: I didn't get a wink of sleep due to the constant traffic and outdoor commotion.
Facilities & Layout
The layout of the hotel is a bit baffling. There are 24 guest rooms on the first floor, yet only 4 toilets and 2 showers to share between everyone.
A few other things to note:
• Hallways: They are fully carpeted, which felt a bit dated and made dragging luggage a chore.
• Accessibility: There is no elevator. If you have heavy bags or accessibility needs, getting to your room will be a significant challenge.
If you just need a clean place to sit during the day, the suites are nice. But between the lack of bathrooms and the overwhelming noise, I wouldn't recommend staying here if you actually plan on sleeping."
