    poor breakfast
    cleanliness issues
    service problems

    The room was modern and clean, providing a comfortable stay. The location is excellent for visiting the university, with staff that are helpful and accommodating. However, the breakfast options were lacking and I encountered issues with room cleanliness that were not addressed satisfactorily. Overall, a good choice for a short stay but improvements in service are needed.

    convenient access
    ample parking
    slow check-in
    rude management

    What makes it worth it – and what doesn’t

    Being close to our home made it convenient for visiting friends who stayed here. The ample parking right outside each room offered a big advantage, making it easy to load and unload our belongings.

    Check-in was painfully slow, and the bathroom cleanliness did not meet expectations. The rude management response to our concerns left us feeling ignored during what should have been a pleasant stay.

    fresh room
    poor service

    Disappointment fills the stay

    The fresh, clean room set the stage for our arrival, making it a bright spot in an otherwise challenging experience.

    However, the lack of proper service left us feeling neglected, especially when the front desk seemed uninterested in addressing our concerns promptly.

    convenient parking
    crisp snacks
    uncomfortable mattress
    frustrating check-in
    insect presence

    The check-in experience was frustrating due to unhelpful staff, forcing me to wait outside in a hot car for an hour. The mattress was old, with noticeable depressions making it uncomfortable, and my room had insects, including ants that invaded my luggage. On the brighter side, I appreciated the crisp snacks available, which were a nice touch, and the parking convenience right outside my room was very helpful.
