The room was prepared in a rush. There were juice stains on the floor from previous guests, and it overall felt not clean. This was confirmed when I saw some cockroaches on the ceiling in the hallway. I had to ask for additional towels, which were handed to me without any real cleanliness protocols. My bathroom was broken in many ways, and several customers were complaining about their water not working in the lobby, with no refund option provided. Several things in my room were broken, smelt bad, and the TV did not work.

The room was clean and spacious. Pretty quiet. The staff was amazing. The bed was not the most comfortable, but I still had good sleep. The residence is situated downtown, so the outside area is not the prettiest. But I liked that everything was close (groceries, restaurents/fastfood, stores, etc.). I didnt need to use much transportation.
