Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
I feel bias doing this review, but I think it is important to let people know. If you are considering this hotel, there are few things I would like to share. -The place is clean, and basic,very basic. -Breakfast is good with 5-7 -choices. -If you are traveling from a very cold place like me, you feel dehydrated all the time. There are not ice machines avaliables. You need to ask for ice water every time. They will bring it. -There are no coffeemakers, neither minibars. If you are a heavy coffee drinker, they do not have coffee makers. I have to buy a mini one just for these days. They provided a minibar when I asked. If you ask front desk for something, they try hard to help you. Also, be aware...When I checked out, the lady said that my towels had a stain. This was possible because I had removed my make.up the night before with the towel. The receptionist said that I had to pay for them. I refused explained that those stains were makw up that will be washed out ofter washing. Thw receptionist wanted $30.00! I told her that I was not paying that p Much. She said ahe needed to charge $$30.00 I got upset, thats outrageous, I did not have money for that since I only had to pay the taxi. I told her you have my card info you can charge them there. She said it needed to be cash. I told her I was not pating that much and left.

Normally I give you 5 stars. My last visit was a nightmare. The staff is amazing but that night it was horrendous. I had spent about 30 days at the hotel over a 5 week period. It was awesome. My last stay I asked for a double room. I had a 18month old with me. We received a 1 bed hotel with no air conditioning. We arrived around 8:30pm. We didn’t get into our room until 2am. The bell boys were awesome but they were helpless. No apologies. No free meal. Nothing. I spent well over $1000 and got nothing. Not even an I’m sorry. It is a shame because I had just referred some Amaericsn friends.

Good hotel

The hotel is decent and for the price not bad. The neighborhood is a little dicey and I don’t recommend walking around the hotel. Service was nice, rooms were comfy, breakfast was included. There was hot water some of the time, no hairdryers available, but overall a really good deal. It’s central to everything if you take uber.
