I went with my family, the hallways were super dirty, the bathroom had a leak that didn't let us sleep, and we found stained pillows, oh and they didn't change my towels or make the beds. Good location, everything is close, but I think they should improve the cleaning and check the bathrooms to make sure everything works properly.
