GO SOMEWHERE ELSE - DIRTY AND POORLY MAINTAINED
The hotel is dirty, poorly managed and not well maintained. Very poor value for the money. It allowed very loud parties to continue until 3:00 am which disturbed our sleep. The shower in our unit flooded not only the entire bathroom but parts of the bedroom as well. Requests were made and ignored. Water faucet continued to drip after having been supposedly fixed. Many regular room items like coffee packets were missing from our unit. Many more things tooo numerous to mention.
