Summary: Clean hotel. Good location. Ok free dinner and breakfast which are miles better than most Hampton Inns (if you travel to US you know what I mean). Cleanliness would be 9 compared to Hampton Inn which would be around 6 (I am generous here). I spent about 120-150 nights in hotels world wide each year so I know a little. The only downside is the small space of the rooms. Then again, you can pay 4x or more and stay in Hilton’s or Marriott (I am top tier at both).
