8/10 Good
"Pros: nice shower, comfy bed, lots of outside room to sit, convenient parking, elevator, nice staff, convenient location, near restaurants/food, mostly quiet, nice room layout with sofa Cons: one of my bathroom towels was obviously dirty with some wort of sticky substance on it. The water pressure in the shower was weak. The sink was always backed up."
