Liked: Cleanliness
I thought we would check out the amenities when we got there. But when we got there, there was nothing to tell us about them or anything about the ares. We called maintenance several times and they did well. The toilet in the bathroom with the king bed, we not secure and they did not secure it. We had strangers roaming around and I had to ask what they were doing there, I should have been informed of them.
