Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort
20 cop cars around when I came to check I. They gave me a key and mentioned nothing else. Room was clean but old and broken. Mattress felt lumpy. Slept with one eye open not knowing why all the police was there. Checked out and saw they had breakfast which I was not told of when checking in. Nice people but didn’t feel safe there and glad my family was not with me this time

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The stay was terrible. The room and beds were so dirty. There were cockroaches everywhere. The room had really bad smell. The bathroom lock was not working. Power sockets were not working. The frontdesk staff told that the manager will contact me, but nobody responded back. Overall I recommend not to stay at this place.
