Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I spent one night out of the 4 I initially booked. The safes were not bolted / secured to the wall. Easily carried safe out of the room. It was then glued to the wall. The silicone left a bad smell. Changed to another room. This was an adjoining room with no lock, the other guest was noisy all night. The shower was filthy, the drain was blocked. I had paid upfront for 4 nights but only stayed one. I’m still waiting to be reimbursed for the 3 nights.

Disliked: Amenities
There were multiple things that resulted in the dissatisfaction: - Had multiple issues with the water and bath. Bath water accumulated and was not draining. - No hot water. - Thermostat not working. - Safe not working. The surprising part was the service and attitude of the front office staff. Initially we were asked why we didn’t report the issues sooner instead of after 3 hours post check-in. Also there was no remedy of the issues for around 10 hours until the next morning. The bright spot was the interaction with the staff who came to fix. Real nice, good communication, and thorough in the work. Overall - quite a sub standard quality with many issues. And front office staff as well as breakfast staff is rude and horrible attitude.

Customer service was great. Free printing and scanning at the oddest of hours was a cut above the rest in meeting customer needs. Friendly and courteous staff. Good meals. Minor suggestion. The square pin socket behind the couch in the room was unreachable but needed. Consider making the couch moveable or making the socket available elsehwere in the room (I forgot to bring an adapter so I couldn't use the round hole sockets
