Easy to find. Our room did have a wasps nest on the balcony, a dirty stain on the left side under the mattress. They also had our peephole blocked with paper. So that kinda scared us. Pool was also closed to maintenance unfortunately.

Terrible place to stay
The pool was out of service, ice machine broken, no bar or restaurant on site as advertised. Elevator was dirty. Room and hallways smelled like cigarettes. Wall AC is under a shelf/cabinet- no air flow. Shower was broken and had low water pressure. TV was messed up. Sheets and pillow cases had an odd odor.

The hotel was advertised as having a pool and a lobby bar. When i got there they had no bar and the pool was closed. Those were the 2 reasons i booked the hotel.

This hotel shouldn’t be booking rooms. After we checked in we got a note under our door saying we wouldn’t have access to water the next day from 8:00am-3:00pm. They knowingly let us check in and did nothing to compensate us for the inconvenience. Water is a necessity and essential. The outlets in the room also don’t didn’t work and both the pool and gym were under maintenance.

It was very chaotic checking in. A lot of workers upfront and they all seemed confused. Once I got my check in a worker took me to my room to check my remote and made me very uncomfortable and it was just strange. Beside that it was a fine hotel. No pool.
