There was construction happening in the building while we were staying, which they didn’t disclose. There were also mice traps in the hall near our room, communal washrooms were dirty, and they left the windows open despite it being freezing. Had to check out early due to the conditions. Would not recommend.

Overall it was good value and accommodations and facilities were clean. I was in a room in the basement where it was cooler but it had a number of spiders and the mini fridge was making a lot of noise. I took care of both issues on my own but noted them to the front desk on checkout (if I mentioned it to them ahead of time I am confident they would have dealt with promptly as front desk service was good).
