From Tuesday through yesterday, I booked a 2 bedroom here just for myself and possibly someone else to spend the night after Countdown in the NOS Events Center, and I appreciated the fact that I had a place to crash from the long night of good music, crowds of people and cold weather. I also chose this place since it is half a mile from a large bus area called Fullerton Park & Ride, where I would take the shuttle and come back.
Checking in, I paid a $40 deposit, which will be refunded back to me. The process was smooth, and the receptionist was polite. In the end, she gave me the room keycard, a TV remote and Wi-Fi SSID and password. Going into my second floor room, I felt it looked pretty accurate to the photos that were posted for this hotel.
Everything that I needed worked, thankfully. I was not able to turn the TV on, but I didn't have time to watch it anyway. I thought that the refrigerator was not working, but it turns out that, after I talked to the receptionist, I had to plug the power cord into an electrical outlet. I was not sure if the air conditioner in my room was also a heater because I haven't tried setting the temperature to room temperature. After taking a hot shower and washing up, I was thinking of testing the AC to see if it was also a heater because the room was really cold, but I didn't want to turn it on because I was afraid of warming up my room too much. I decided to tough it out, but I regret not trying because it was about 50 degrees Fahrenheit.
