It was nice, but there wasn't heating and the water didn't get hot enough to make me feel not cold. They let me check-in at like 4am, which was really cool of them.

2/10 Poor

I never checked in, no one ever came to the front desk to check me in. After waiting 30 minutes I left and got a room at another hotel.
Randal, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Excellent staff and they took care of the customers. This is our third time staying at the place and everyone committed to ensure the service of excellence. The property was situated not too far from the University. However, we could not hear any noises around the area. We slept very well for both nights. We will come back and stay at this place again.
