This is a terrible place! Customer service is horrible! Place is very dirty, toilet was not clean and had urine on it! Water kept getting cut off! No one ever came to clean the room!
The worst part of our stay was when we got served bread with mold on it! I showed to the manager and never even came to apologize and said anything! I don’t understand how this hotel is still functioning!
Would not recommend and would definitely not stay here ever again
