"Breakfast was a 12 on a scale of 1-10. (Fabulous crispy bacon was only one positive- huge choices like a cruise ship buffet for breakfast - and they would cook to order as well.)"

"I particularly loved the blackout curtains that were set up to overlap each other and therefore let absolutely zero light in."

Mixed Feelings About My Stay

The room was smaller than expected, especially considering the price. I also noticed the absence of readily available air conditioning. This made temperature control difficult. It began early each morning. Dust accumulated quickly due to the ongoing work outside. It was a bit frustrating.

adequate stay, some drawbacks

small room morning noise

The room felt quite small, especially considering the price. i really missed having enough space to comfortably unpack and move around. also, the lack of drawers or shelves meant i basically lived out of my suitcase. it wasn't ideal for a longer stay.
