Natasha

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Parking is easy. Access to the room a little hard especially when carrying a baby. Room was not clean, my little found raisins, a comb, and a lighter in the room. The faucet in the kitchenette leaked when being used, the faucet in the bathtub wouldn't get off of shower, and the couch and bed was super hard and uncomfortable. The day receptionist was hard to understand and a little rude.
