When I 1st arrived I was given keys to a double bed room when I booked and paid extra for a king suite….they ended up switching me to a king room but NOT the one I booked online! As I was in the lobby I heard multiple other guests complaining about the same thing… booking a certain room type and being given something else. So be aware of that! Other than not getting the room I wanted and paid for, the hotel pool was down. The area is good, close to tourist attractions, the airport, and the shopping mall. The cafe they have is also nice and the bar was nice as well. Decent hotel for the price but next time I would probably choose another place.

The building is in dire need of upgrades. The hot musty aire that greeted me when I arrived on my floor was not pleasant. I didnt like that there is little to no housekeeping services. I ran out of toilet paper my last day because very little toilet paper was provided. When I asked for more the cleaning staff responded with a look of displeasure and only provided one small roll. When I saw that I needed more I asked for more at the front desk and was told someone would bring me more. No one brought me more and I resorted to using paper towles I cut in squares for toilet paper. I also saw a roach in the bathroom on 3 seperare occassions. I will never stay here again. Terrible!!!
