Despite the overpowering smell of urine in the rooms and the presence of cockroaches, the hotel looked nice. The staff was helpful and pleasant, although not particularly enthusiastic. The location was ideal for business activities and an easy walk to the Convention Center. The dining options were basic and unappetizing.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was convenient, close to the railway station and the city center, but it was not the most welcoming area with nearby bail bonds and the police department. The service was friendly, though lacking in communication about amenities like Wi-Fi. The rooms were not up to standards, with broken fixtures and a strong smell of urine, despite management's attempts to address the issues. The dining experience left much to be desired, offering only basic options in a less-than-clean environment.
