convenient and well-located!

helpful staffgood locationlate checkoutcommon kitchen
the staff were very helpful when i needed directions. the location was good, near supermarkets. i chose a late checkout without issues. the common kitchen access really helped cut down on dining costs, especially with penny market right next door.
the bathroom, while functional, seemed a bit small for the room capacity, though the room was spacious.
