8.4/10 Very Good! (565 reviews)
Extremely small king room and breakfast was very mediocre with very less options but the bed was very comfortable. The room has no carpet and is good for a very short stay.

Big differentiator between hotels for me are ones which let you check in before the official check in time. Expect to wait to exactly the check in time and not a second before.
