Sketchy people hanging around the property. Went to check in and saw a roach scurry across the room. Followed by a bed bug crawling up the wall. Didn’t unpack thank goodness. Person on the front desk probably knew. Refunded me without hesitation. Avoid at all cost

It’s very basic. The breakfast doesn’t start until 7:00, which is late by my standards. Breakfast offered was worst I’ve ever seen at a hotel. Very disappointed. No lotion in room.
