I will never stay again
Pros:

Only the rooms were spacious and okay .

Cons:

Employee - Breakfast wasn’t good . I was having breakfast in the restaurant section, checking my emails, and I forgot the bread in the toaster. The short, dark-haired female manager apparently started arguing with me. Very disrespectful! I've stayed in hundreds of hotels and never seen anything like this before. Terrible!
