8/10 Good

"I never had the breakfast. But it looked good My tv to watch hockey went out the first night i was there and never worked again. I was there for 2 nights. The place was clean. Bed was amazing. Great pillows and the blankets were to die for. The area was very quiet even though it was in the Market area. Just a block and a half from the bustling night life. (That I never went to)"
