Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
When you enter the room, it is nicely clean and prepared, but they never come to clean, change the garbage, bring other towels, soap, or do anything else until I left. Imagine I stayed from Sunday to Wednesday, and nothing changed since I entered the room. I had to go out and find my own soap so I could remain okay. But the place is good, and the staff, parking, and nearby shops are all excellent.
