6/10 Good

There was a dead roach in our first room. Due to this is there any compensation? A discount due to us having to get another room and dealing with this instead of enjoying our stay.
jerrika, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Excellent customer service and room was recently renovated. Location was noisy. Will definitely stay there again. Thank you staff for your hospitality.
Rajwant, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I didn't rent a car for my trip and was trying to go on a budget for transportation, so it worked out that this hotel is at less than 10 minutes walk from the trolley station. It's a good affordable option in a nice location that is close to both downtown and the country border.
