Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
It was a nightmare. The room was not only tiny with old crappy furniture but the shower and toilet were in the room with the bed so you had zero privacy when using either of them. The frosted glass wasn’t even frosted enough to hide anything. We had to create a makeshift covering so we weren’t voyeurs. There was no warning of this condition. We also asked for extra towels and didn’t receive any. There were also no ceiling lights making the space dark and dreary with weird disco mushrooms outside and absolutely no view. It was awful. Would never recommend and not worth the horrifically inflated prices. They also have no parking for that price and the parking lot is tricky to find if you don’t know the area.
