Travel Purpose: business
Positive: The location was great! Bed was comfy! Amenities were clean! Couldn't have asked for more.
Negative: The previous person who stayed in the room forgot to give their bed number tag to the front desk, so I assumed they were still here, which they weren't, which ended up me choosing a bunk that I did not prefer. Not the biggest deal but was dissapointing.
