“The automated, remote key system certainly streamlines arrival, and some rooms include fridges and a generous supply of coffee; the location puts you right in the middle of the action. That said, upkeep seems inconsistent, with some past guests reporting maintenance and cleanliness issues. It's a budget option where experiences may vary.”
