Hotel lobby is not exactly what you see in the pictures, it’s very small, the elevators can only fit two individuals or one person with two pieces of luggage, we stayed in Room 502, lot of space but not maintained, beds are fine the bathroom is okay, shower curtain and tub, hotel good for one night not recommended for extended stay.
