Small cramped double queen room was actually a double full. The bathroom had little to no counter space. No sound blocking and next to a freeway means loud traffic at night.

Liked the restaurant, Postcards. The air con was working well! The fridge was working great! Didn't like the paid parking when the gates were open all the time. The laundry room was messy and trash was all over the floor. Smelled bad too.

Cons (-) Terrible Internet connection in my room - though wifi was free. Bad location - stranded on the side of a highway, where only food option is the hotel's restaurant, which consistently served the average & overpriced food at room temperature. Restaurant staff was disorganized and not helpful - waited for my check for half an hour every time. Smelled musty/smoky - just older and kind of run down plac...
