8/10 Very good

The hotel is conveniently located close to several attractions. The rooms are small, and the décor is uninviting, with dull gray colors throughout. The room we were initially given was noisy; however, when we asked to change rooms, the staff responded quickly. Room was clean. Staff were very nice.
