After long day, we come to room to find out room was not cleaned. When I request service, been told I suppose to request room service 24hrs in advance and ask if we need fresh towels can be collected from front desk. I travel lot and this is the first time it happens to me. To me it is courtesy to let customers know when they check in when they are not planning to clean rooms. Most hotels, its customer option to opt out cleaning not other way around.

This property actually surprised me in a good way! Staff were very friendly, rooms were fully equipped with a fridge and microwave, beds were comfortable, shower was clean and had nice shampoo, soap, conditioner. Definitely renovated in a good way. Breakfast also was included and had many hot items with a variety. Was able to sit outside on patio chairs to eat breakfast while enjoying the weather. Great location which was close to the airport and many restaurants to pick from in the area. Highly recommend!

The check-in was almost an hour later. The room was not cleaned on time. Strong smell of bleach in the room. The front desk staff was nice and tried to help. The hotel needs some refresh for sure. Wired smells. Will be back when it’s renovated.
