Acceptable stay downtown
friendly staffcomfortable bedloud musicdated colors
The staff at the front desk were friendly. My room was clean and the bed was comfortable. I woke up and had a chai at morning bird. The restaurant seemed to fit the hotel's aesthetic.
The hotel is next to a highway so there was some noise. The music in the lobby WAS loud. The interior design felt a bit dated, with dark colors. I only saw a coffee shop and a pool bar.
