Not even 3* hotel
I don't like my experience with this hotel. It is very dark. Looks durty. Like old train station.
There are no slippers in the room, no bath rope. The shower gel bottles are durty with soap rings around. Looks like nobody washed it.
Very old photo wallpaper on the wall. Room is small.

It was in the transition from Novetel to DT by Hilton. Overall it’s great. The check in with Hailey(?) was great. The only problem was the underground garage was under renovation so I had to park inside a mall across the street. The loading area in front was kinda small.
