Not at all environmentally conscious
Older hotel that looks aged, but very clean nonetheless. The beds are comfortable and it was quiet. I very much disliked that everything was PLASTIC, in the breakfast room and at the coffee machine in the room. Cups were wrapped in plastic, plastic utensils were used. These all go in a trash can that is then taken to the landfill where they reside for thousands of years. To shame.

The hotel staff was friendly, and the room was average. The bed was not very comfortable; however, it was clean. The hotel's location was not great, as there were quite a few homeless people nearby.
