“While the staff receives praise for their service, particularly at check-in, there are consistent concerns about cleanliness, especially regarding hair and possible smoking odors in non-smoking rooms. Based on the reports, a stay here may involve managing expectations around room conditions and potential maintenance issues. For those prioritizing budget over pristine accommodations, this could be an option, but be aware of the potential trade-offs.”
