The location is a little out of the way but totally commutable via light rail. The breakfast was a nice assortment, although not gratis. The rooms are so basic and depressing. Also after a day, nothing starts to smell nice with no ventilation, plastic-doored bathroom a shower, low AC, and no possibility to open a window.
