Reviews
Location is not a safe area at all full of the homeless drug and immigrant around the hotel doors and otopark.
Room is very basic bed and towel thats all rest you need it.
Pillow is like a paper so bring your own pillow
Stuff is kind and helpful.
Specially we do not offer the this hotel who has a kids for your safety.
We came back after 5 pm and reception was already open. The staff was friendly. He said that he was there in the morning, from around 6-11am and again from 5-11pm,. Check in was possible between 3 -5 pm using the machine.
Some useful info:
- there is no check in option on the screen before 3pm. So early check in is not possible.
- Parking next door is currently not available. We use the parking garage at the bus station nearby.
- The room is very basic. Baby cot is not available. We only stayed for a night so that was fine.
