It was sufficient to stay in - clean enough not to want to leave but it needed so many renovations. Everything looked old and not kept over the years so maintenance is lacking and there was only one elevator working that did cause a longer delay in getting to your room. The staff was decent and helpful although I didn't get enthusiasm like they try to convey in their mission by mentioning a "spark" in your experience. If you need a safe, clean, convenient stay then I recommend though but don't expect excellence.

Frustação

Ao chegar esperamos aproximadamente 01h para entrar. Nos colocaram no quarto errado. E só após reclamarmos que fomos trocados para o quarto correto. A limpeza do quarto em geral deixa a desejar. Com baixa manutenção. A cama é muito confortável. A equipe em geral é super solicita. Uma pena que a estrutura do hotel engane por fotos.

Everything was great for the most part. I was surprised by how cold it was in the room when I arrived. The thermostat was set to 51 and it was 58 degrees in the room. I am glad there was an extra blanket in the room because it took a little bit for the room to warm up. The only thing that could have been better was it was hard to get hot water in the shower.
