"Place wasn’t the cleanest or the best location (unless you need to be close to the airport) but the worst part is how thin the walls are, difficult to sleep when you can hear everything."
"Don't go there. The staff willingly put us in a room with no air or heat. When we told them,they sent maintenance who told us the system does not work. They sent an industrial fan that drys floors to our room to try to citculate the stale air. The pictures online are fake. The establishment smells old and musty. The bathtub was poorly resurfaced and gave me the ick. Not good. The staff at check out was unapologetic. Save yourself the hassle and frustration."
