My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were okay for a one-night stay, but they were very small and quite dusty, triggering my husband's allergies. Despite being clean, there was a persistent unpleasant smell in the public areas. On the bright side, the hotel offers free Wi-Fi, even though the signal is weak and may disconnect frequently.
