Everything. Spacious rooms with all the needed amenities.
Nothing really to put here. There were some homeless people in the parking lot, but not any doing of the hotel.

Disappointing
Location was kind of close to downtown.
Booking.com scammed us into paying almost 500 dollars a night for what is at best at 2-3 star property. Wallpaper peeling off, rust on bathroom fixtures, splotches of paint (or something) on the bathroom door. I feel ripped off and will never book using your service again.

The room was nice and big, really clean, and the bed was huge. Room was well lit, the floor was quiet, the staff were super helpful, and the location was in a good spot.
Breakfast isn't great as there are not many options. While my room key deactivated a few times, staff were super helpful to get it resolved.
