Loved staying at the property. Only dislike I had was that the housekeeping staff knocked on my hotel room door at 9:45am and I am unsure why. I booked only one night and I didn’t appreciate being woken up so early.

The room hasn’t been clean. There’s dust and trash behind the bed, spiderwebs in the corner by the AC unit, shower was dirty. There were strands of hair on the bed, under the blankets.
