The bed was very hard, and on our last night someone opened our room door luckily we had the lock that is across the door and only opens a little bit. it was very scary and the people left running because a soon as my husband got up to check they were gone. i let the staff know afterwards and said they were going to check camaras but never gave us an update.

Natalie

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Room had a broken futon. Not even an actual bed. Which was described as a couch that turns into a bed, not a a rock hard futon. Also king size bed was very hard. My back is still killing me. Wifi was horrible. Staff specifically Enrique was horrible, when i literally just arrived i told him the futon bed leg was bent/broken and wanted him to switch me rooms or replace the bed since my 10 year old daughter was going to sleep on it. He the accused us of breaking it and started calling all his staff members to question if they noticed the bed already broken. He was very rude and disrespectful and made me feel very uncomfortable. I was so angry and ready to leave but i believe it was too late to cancel and get a refund. I will never stay there again

Everything was okay. No privacy for the restrooms in the rooms. Door was semi-see through and had no lock. I was staying with family so it was okay but I wouldn’t have like it if staying with friends. Check in was a bit of a mess. The staff member gave me a room that was already occupied. Did not like how a staff member took the spoon right out of my yogurt container during the breakfast hour.
