I had a great experience at this place in the past. However, this time we had bed bugs in our room unfortunately. But they did make it right by giving me a refund and offered another room so they are good people but I’m just rating this pretty low for my last experience here

There were no outlets next to the bed, the water was brown when I first turned it on everyday. The deadbolt lock didn’t work so I prayed nobody would break in. Wasn’t clean when I first arrived.
