I enjoyed the cinnamon rolls for breakfast. The original guy who checked us in, reversed our check in process, but the manager stepped in and handled the situation for us.

Rusk House Serviced Apartments
During our stay our room was never serviced. I had to go and ask for coffee and towels. Our room was very loud. There was a constant knocking in the walls I assume elevator shaft and lots of street noise. The couch had a random stain that needs to be deep cleaned. Would not stay again.
