I stayed here for Three nights. The main reason why I booked this hotel compared to other hotels at same price range was this hotel had a Jacuzzi. The Jacuzzi was not working, but staff had told me it was working when I called ahead to ask. This hotel advertises complementary breakfast. Their complementary breakfast only consists of toast, waffles, pastries, and coffee. The boiled eggs had gone bad. I was disappointed with the breakfast.
