Travelled with group
Liked: Cleanliness
Tv didn’t work and the sink had a major leak with a bucket underneath but it was quiet and safe for the most part. The balcony was a great relaxation spot and I was there for 2 days enjoying the city so I wasn’t too picky. Oh and 25 cent for a bucket of ice when I paid $300 to stay there was a little crazy to me but overall a nice laid back visit.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
There was no hot water for my entire stay. They also have a guest policy where I was forced to pay additional fees anytime I had someone in my room. Worst experience I’ve had.
