9/10 Wonderful! (3,726 reviews)
"Overall a great choice for travelers. Amenities etc are minimal (a glass or cup would be nice) and has sort of a capsule hotel modular feel (it isn’t), but perfectly adequate, clean, and restaurant/bar is convenient and quite nice. Staff at check in/out was very nice."
