The room was good—very clean, comfortable, and well-kept! Unfortunately, the pool and hot tub were unavailable during my stay, which was disappointing since that was one of the main reasons I chose this hotel. When I asked the front desk about a possible partial refund for the inconvenience, the staff member was rude and dismissive, saying, “I doubt you’re getting anything for it.” That interaction definitely left a bad impression. Other than that, my stay was fine overall.

The room was cleaned, sink was leaking, staff is horrible with attitude, I ask for cleaning the room daily, she was rude and said no, we only clean every other day. I paid $250 a day to have daily nice, fresh clean room with all the garbage picked up and replenish what needed. Water is just basic necessities and it is cheap, you should have available for your guest, breakfast, you should have at least one more item boiled eggs or eggs white non contaminated with any other meat like pork. Have all use gloves.
