amazing stay close to everything!

self-serve breakfast clean room mini fridge

I loved how close it was to the bus lines and the airport! the self-serve breakfast options with milk and cereal were a nice touch. It really helped me start my day. the room was clean and the bed was very comfy. i especially liked the mini fridge and microwave because i could store and warm up leftovers from restaurants nearby!!

the walls were really thin. i could hear noises from other rooms and the hallway, so i had trouble falling asleep at first.

airport access bus transport convenient charger small duvet temperature fluctuation poor soundproofing

the location worked well for airport access. bus stops were conveniently close by. there was quick bus transport available from the airport. the room had a usb charger in the socket by the bed.

the shower temperature fluctuated a lot. water switched from hot to cold. the duvet was too small. also, i found the room lacked sufficient darkness and soundproofing.
