AC worked once i reset the power cord surge protector. Front staff ladybwas nice but overwhelmed at 3 pm check in. Each reservation takes 10-15 minutes minimum. Mine took 30 because she had to text and call the hotel owner over a seperate "emergency ". Allow for a wide window to check in and early checkin is not allowed. Location was good with quick food delivery. Hotel has NO BREAKFAST. 5 minute walk to subway.
