I wanted to share some of our feedback of your recent stay at your hotel . Overall, our experience was positive , the staff was very friendly and we enjoyed the food and amenities . However, I was very disappointed in our room when we arrived. The room was not cleaned bugs and everywhere , hair in the shower and candy in the beds and on the floor.it made the space feel uncomfortable and not up to your usual standards.

the only reason I didn't cancel my reservation upon entering my room is I know it is a pain in the ass to be reimbursed from Expedia for a pre-booked room. the whole place smelled musty and thankfully it was only me and only a room to sleep in. I would never let my family stay at this place, it's really a rundown dump under a fresh coat of paint.
