Liked: Cleanliness
Great being right in the middle of town with the price being very moderate. Of course it would make a huge difference if they had a human being at the front desk instead of a row of check-in computers. I couldn’t get in the front door when I arrived because I didn’t have a passcode or card because I hadn’t checked in. (Luckily a human being appeared from somewhere.) Also I couldn’t find anyone to report that the cleaners had not refilled the soap dispenser. The room was spacious, comfortable, clean and well-equipped. The staff I came across randomly seemed to be nice humans. I will stay there again.
