"Very good overall for the money. This is a western style hotel, with large rooms, hot shower, comfortable king bed. Decently equipped. Very quiet. Clean. Decent breakfast. Staff was friendly and helpful. Within easy walking distance of several different decent bars and restaurants. Plenty of secure parking. Keep the magnetic door entry cards away from your cellphones, we had to get ours re-coded twice before we figured that out. The desk staff cheerfully reprogrammed them without a problem each time. If that happens to you, be sure to bring both of them so they both work afterwards.
Only 2 issues: the WiFi varied between 2 bars and not functional in our second floor room near the elevator. And there’s only one guest washer and dryer for the entire hotel, so plan accordingly if you need to do laundry. The washer worked fine and it was only a dollar. The sole dryer was broken - it ran and got warm but didn’t noticeably dry our clothes even after two paid cycles and 45 minutes. We had to check out and ended up taking our wet laundry to the next hotel and drying it in the air conditioning overnight, which worked fine.
We would happily stay here again.
