"The staff were very kind and accommodating. That was Honestly the best part of the hotel. Breakfast had several pretty good options, considering it was free. The coffee for breakfast was excellent. The room had several accommodations, like a coffee machine and microwave. The place doesn’t have the best smell, and it’s a little bit outdated, but for the price it was much better than expected. I would book there again."
