Sara

Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Staff & service, room comfort
Parking is only available from 5 pm until 7 am. When I arrived at 3, I was unable to check in because they were unable to offer me parking. When I came back at 5, I was told I could only park if I moved my car by 7, creating an unexpected early morning for me. There is no A/C in the rooms. It was 95 that day and I was given a northwestern room on the fourth floor that no one had bothered to close the blinds on. They also prevent the windows from opening fully. It was so insufferably hot that I lay on the bed in my underwear with the door propped open - so much for a private room. I didn't fall asleep until 3 because of the heat. The staff were also rude when I checked in. The bedding and showers were clean. Without a car and with a room on the other side of the building and/or not at the height of summer, I'm sure staying here would be fine.
