A few issues that ought to be addressed with management: the convenience store was poorly stocked; it didn't even have bottled water for sale; room 421 has some kind of water pipe in the ceiling in front of the door and it makes constant noise resembling a flushing toilet, and the a/c inside the room works fine, but the compressor is also unreasonably loud. Overall, it's a good hotel, but the management could tighten things up a little.
