8/10 Very Good! (535 reviews)
The rooms are a bit older and the lock on our door wasn’t working properly so that was a bit concerning. Overall the room was clean. One of the doors to get into the building did not work so we had to go through the front even though the room was in the back. We also had to go up stairs to get to our room. The staff were friendly and they did have coffee available in the morning.
