Lobby customer service was great Valerie and another two young men were so nice but the charges not
Pros:

Floors were not clean the balcony had trash and sheets weren’t the sheets we were suited to have but we were still charged for usage… we were there for multiple days without turn overs for sheets or towels

Cons:

No new towels no new sheets … someone came and saw sheets were wrong and damaged from previous use and nothing changed and we were still charged for days of using the same towels and sheets for more than one nights stay… not fair
