8/10 Good
"The room was comfortable, and everything worked as it should. You need an extension cord to use the coffee maker. You had to be a short person or be able to get down on your knees to use the refrigerator because it sat on the floor. One parking spot per room? They had vacancies but no parking; something wasn't right. Overall, not a bad place."
