Still value for the budget minded
Could still hear trains go by around bedtime. I was in one of the few rooms where there was a room above - could hear folks walking upstairs on hardwood floor upstairs and folks talking in room next to me - not sound insulated. My bed squeaked. Bathroom recently upgraded and nice. Price is cheap, but they should still offer one bottle of water when you arrive.
