The lobby is the most scenic part of the hotel. The rooms are layed out like apartments around the complex. Note that there isn't an elevator if your room is on the second floor. Breakfast is quite expensive but delicious. Staff was very friendly and location was excellent

We have stayed several times and it has always been great- this time we found it a little off-putting to come into the lobby and it felt like you had to be absolutely silent as students were studying close to the door.

To be completely honest, this should be called Motel Abacus not Hotel. The design was great and led me to believe it would be a boutique-like hotel. It is not. And please get a coffee pot in the rooms.
