Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The room had a terrible smell that hit you when you opened the door. It was old and a couple of lamps weren’t working. When I asked to change rooms the front desk staff said the system was down so they couldn’t help. She was too busy smoking outside to try to come up with a solution.

My first room smelled musty like old water so I asked to change rooms. The lady at the front was very accommodating about this. The room I was moved to- one of the light bulbs next tot he bed was burnt out, the to toilet wouldn’t stop running, none of the counters or bed stands had been wiped down. This was the second smtjme I have stayed here and my first stay months ago was awesome. Thats why I rebooked but will it stay here again.

Okay but not worth the price
The bathroom was not clean. Breakfast and the restaurant were not available. The room was decent. But it was very very overpriced for what was available. Had I known the breakfast and restaurant wasn't going to be available I would not have stayed here.
