Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
I requested someone come and mop the floor because it looked dirty. The receptionist told us it was stained, but clean. Someone didn't clean the floor because we could see dirt and dead bugs. The carpet wasn't cleaned either. The curtains were too long and were getting in the way of the air conditioner thereby blocking the air flow. The walls were stained in the bathroom, you could see hand prints. One of the bedcovers had the same kind of dirt. The ice bucket had mold in it. The room smelled like mildew so we asked to be moved but according to the receptionist, the manager said the room was clean enough. We will never stay there again. The receptionist was nice, though. We did ask for extra blankets and a pillow.
