I liked the property as a hotel that I wasn’t going to be at much.The room was fine and the layout was nice. However, the shower barely dripped water in Room 214. I didn’t say anything because I didn’t want to repack and change rooms and keys. But the place was clean and the layout of the room was nice.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
I stayed in the jacuzzi suite for almost $200 a night, which would have been fine except the room was dirty and poorly maintained. The staff was so rude and was offended when we asked for clean towels bc the ones in the room were dirty. The shower didn't drain so when taking a shower you stand in few inches of dirty water. Not worth it.

The rooms are set up oddly with wasted space in the living room. A painting was missing from the wall and there was no tv in the main area, only the bedroom. There was a kitchenette with an ancient microwave and a questionable hot plate. T There is no table. The tv in the bedroom was old with no hdmi ports. The fan in the bathroom was very loud and the shower had pretty bad water pressure and made a strange loud noise when on. Plus, the shower head looked like it could separate from the wall at any moment. We also had a random hole in the wall that likes looked either like a bullet hole or hole for someone trapped in the wall to breathe or look through. Glad we only stayed 1 night. Doubt we'll be back.
