The place had to many restrictions and not and office, yet I understand certain rules. The floors were somewhat clean. It was close to downtown. I had an issue with parking, seems like people had friends coming over and no parking for the people that paid for room. The bathroom were super tiny and very uncomfortable, not to mention, God forbid you have a disability or problems with your legs, you will definitely be very uncomfortable. They gave me only 1 soap for 2 people yet I had to ask for more and they did give it to me. It does need some improvement but wasn’t bad.
