"The self check-in was really easy. However, I did not see any employee dying my stay. For the cleanliness of the room, the floor was kind of dirty. I could see crumbs that weren’t mine, which is pretty disgusting. Plus, my bed was not made well at all, it looks like it was done in a hurry. On the positive side, it was very calm and I slept well.
