Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
We felt that the facility was understaffed. This was evident by some structural deficiencies. For example, the automatic door at the entrance was not working, making it difficult to bring in a luggage cart or for a person in a wheelchair to enter. Also, there was no shower curtain in our bathroom so the floor flooded when we took a shower. Having said that, the staff that was present was excellent, just too few of them. For example, TJ at the front desk was especially helpful.
