This is a cheap basic hotel that serves its purpose well. There is nothing too bad about it, but there is nothing outstanding either. It would benefit from renovation, but I'm not sure if it is on the horizon. There is no air conditioning, so I had to keep the windows open, so I could hear some traffic from outside. Bathroom is also very basic. Sound proofing was not perfect, but not terribly bad either. Carpeting definitely needs to be replaced as soon as possible. One thing I did not really appreciate was that their reception is not always staffed (no staff after 6 pm which makes check-in a bit complicated, then no staff I believe between noon and 3pm). So if you check-out and want to leave your luggage for a bit longer, you would have to make sure you pick it up during staffed hours, which is not perfect. Staff are friendly and helpful, the property is clean. The property is close to a metro station, which makes it convenient for commuting to the downtown area. Overall, it is a budget friendly proposition, and if they were staffed 24/7, I would rate it higher.
