Avoid at all cost - 1 star quality
The entire stay and experience was a disaster from the beginning to the end. Personnel was rude and hotel manager refused to meet with me to address the problems. There is a long list of problems so I wont start writing them all here. I demand a refund!!

Mostly perfect stay
Everything was lovely....except....both mornings that I was there, there was a knocking sound at 6:30 am which woke me, which sounded like someone was already doing works in the rooms above me. I complained the second morning. The location is very convenient, everyone was very friendly, and the service was excellent.

29 January 2025
The staff was extremely non responsive and unaccommodating. We had several basic requests and the staff took sometimes over 2 hrs to respond.
The housekeeping was HORRIBLE!!! Floor was not vacuumed. No wash cloths, linens on the bed were not changed daily. Coffee pot not cleaned and water wasn’t refreshed.
The men that worked at the front desk were VERY RUDE and abrasive, from being questioned. I was not happy with this property.
