"For the price it's an okay stay. There's a bed and a tv if you need some entertainment. So, good deal if you need an affordable place to lay your head. Staff is very nice and friendly as well. However, the beds are a little hard, fridge took a while to cool down drinks, and I had to use the microwave twice on the same item before it got hot. So, it's really up to what you are looking for."
