I like the fact that the hotel has modern amenities and it is usually clean. One small problem, however, is that sometimes the workers come in to clean and forgot to replace shower gel in bathroom, or they come in to clean, take away the used towels and fail to replace them with new ones. We had to remind them about 3 times (separate days) about these things. Not sure if they simply forget things often or if they are not paying close attention to what they are doing. Otherwise, our stay was pleasant.
