8/10 Good
"Room was very clean. Bed was really comfy. But pillows so soft they need to allot 2 pillows per person. It was not clear to me that I should've requested a ground floor kitchenette because of the stairs. Not all rooms were renovated yet so was "upgraded" to a renovated room on the first level. No kitchenette, small but adequate for 2 nights. Staff was very nice. I would suggest an ice machine in the front office would be nice."
