I was there on 9/30 when someone pulled the alarm system at 3:30am. Although not the hotels fault, very little guidance or instructions were given. We all just stood around dazed and confused and sleepy.

Great hotel for what we needed (located right at the end of the marathon course). Restaurant was great. Staff was great. Gym and pool areas were good too. And best of all super affordable. Not very walkable to sites but the train was super close. Only issue (very minor) was the fact that the bathroom near the gym needed some work - looks like it had a bad leak or something. Suggest they lit up a little sign that says “Pardon our dust” or similar.

Staying here, you feel like you’re in 70-80s. It was an interesting experience. Looks like they have left everything including chandeliers and furniture how it was during 1976 Olympic games.
