Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Disliked: Amenities
Definitely should include more “hotel like” amenities. The hotel is placed inside of an apartment building, so there were no hotel items such as vending machines or complementary coffees or continental breakfast. I had to leave out of the apartments and walk across the street just to get to go soda and water from a restaurant.
