Nothing was unique. Overall, the property is quite dated. It felt like 2004, not 2024. Bath drain did not flow when showering. There was about 3" of water in tub after every shower. Carpet looked stained and worn in room. Staff was efficient and polite. I had to take my key back 3 times (from the 4th floor) to get it reprogrammed.

The room was ok. Relatively quiet. Met all my needs. The unsatisfying things were empty tissue box and coffee with a weird taste.
