Functional, but not much more

The bed was comfortable enough and the room was clean, but the frame around the mirror was broken and some panels on the air conditioner appeared loose. The carpet in the hall was stained and there was an odd smell. To top it all off, the ice maker was not working.

Disappointing Stay Due to Hygiene Issues

Unfortunately, our experience was disappointing due to cleanliness issues. The hallway had a very unpleasant odor, and our room’s floor was dirty, with sticky spots resembling dried glue. Although the beds were made, we found hair between the sheets, which raised concerns about the hygiene standards.
