Staff was very kind and friendly, place was clean, very noisy though. You can hear your neighbors going in and out of their room, which is so loud that at times I thought someone was coming into my room. Other than that, good stay for a few nights.

The rooms are very neat and modern, and the personnel was very helpful. The noise level during both day and night was very high. During the night there were many interruptions due to people outside screaming and yelling at the top of their lungs. During the day there were heavy equipment construction noises.
