There is a coffee shop right by, so be aware if the smell and smoke right outside. The doors to the hotel rooms are really loud, sounds like everyone is slamming the doors when going in or out of their rooms. Not really clean enough nor good enough standard at this hotel. Breakfast is at another hotel. Also the hotel entrance is only staffed til five in the evening. After that you have to contact the other hotel if you need something.
