The stay got cancelled due to power outage from a storm. But the low review is for their handling of the refund. It took multiple follow-ups. Glad the Expedia customer care reos are very good and diligent.
The room was clean , the balcony was pleasant but overlooked residential houses , breakfast was quite poor as limited choice and brought to your room . Friendly and polite staff.
