They did not have simple towels and face cloths and no housekeeping the whole weekend we were there. No maintenance on sight and our toilet was running loud all weekend due to this. The night staff were really nice but that’s about it. Would not recommend staying here.

Woman working during check in was rude and unhelpful. Made us walk around to the side of the building to get in. Thankfully my dad had already checked into his room so he had a key to get in, otherwise I’m not sure how she expected me to get in the building. Tv did not work. One night, there was not a single hotel worker from 10pm to around 3am and we could not get in touch with anyone, the police had to be called. This was one of the worst hotel experiences I have ever had.

Somewhat disappointing.
The first room I stayed in had no water pressure, hardly a trickle. When I complained, they moved me to a better room 2 floors lower. The sofa in my first room had visible stains on it, and there were no tissues in the tissue dispenser. When I asked one of the room attendants for tissues, she said she didn't have any.
