Rooms were clean. Shower shampoo was empty. Complimentary breakfast is coffee and toast; anything else is extra- avocado toast was decent for the price. Good location, and the jazz music is a bonus. No elevator if carrying heavy luggage.

The room was an interesting split between the gleaming new stainless-steel and dark matte-tile bathroom, and the seedy, saggy, marked and worn room the bed lay in. Hard-matressed with a harsh polyester cover. surrounded by sparse second-hand bits of furniture, "lovely" was not a word that came mind. However! For one night. it did the job.
