"Nice place. "

"A place for travelers who do not need a lot of amenities. Simple room with a fine shower, small tv, and a comfortable bed. Faced east but the heavy drapes kept the sun out and the light did not wake me up. I had a problem with the WiFi connection as I was in a building separate from the office and the signal was too weak for my devices to connect to it."

The outside entry to the building locks after a certain time, and our key card wasn’t working properly, but the attendant didn’t mind us waking her up to help us. No breakfast because of COVID, but otherwise everything was fine. "
