Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Would not recommend this hotel. The hotel smells very musky. When we got to our room, the towels in the room were wet. Not damp, wet! When you call downstairs, no one answers the phone. The toilet was dirty and the lid was left half open. We went down and spoke to the front desk and the gentleman told us there was nothing he could do, to wait to speak to the manager in the morning. He was short with us and seemed annoyed we were complaining about arriving to a hotel room with wet towels and we haven’t even used them and the uncleanliness. There is an outside club in the center of the hotel, so you can hear the music until 3:00 am. It sounds like you are in the center of a nightclub. When we woke up, there was a huge cockroach in the living room of our room. We ended up checking out early due to the uncleanliness of the hotel. We did get a full refund of our stay, but I still think everyone should be aware of our experience before you book here.

The mattress was like sleeping on a brick. Only one of the shower heads worked. And the outlets closest to the window didn’t work at all (near the bed). We won’t be coming back.
