average stay with a couple of issues

constant noisecold food
I stayed here for a few nights and wasn't blown away. the noise was a REAL problem. you could hear everything from the hallway and the street, so i barely got any sleep. plus, the breakfast was nothing to write HOME about. Not much variety and some of the food wasn't even warm.
