Great price. Note that they only take bookings through Expedia, so you still have to pay in person. Great for our group of 4. Mirrors are inside the doors of the cabinet and no a/c but was fine with the fan and windows open. No breakfast or tea towels.

6/10

This is a student dorm, so we were expecting it to be in a state that student dorms usually are. We didn’t mind the old furniture or non-glamorous conditions because that’s what we paid for. But the tables were sticky…the kind of sticky that is hard to wipe off. Tissue paper would stick to the table and have to be peeled off. Also the fan in the suite was very loud. The bedding was only a sheet and two thin blankets. One blanket was very scratchy. The towels were average. Decent travel toiletries were provided. You get a whole suite to yourself. Each room has its own bedroom, nightstand, desk, closet and chair and has its own key. There is a shared full kitchen, living room, and there were 2 bathrooms in our suite. Parking was right out front. Overall, an acceptable place to stay if you’re on a budget. If it had been cleaner, we would have had no complaints.
