Categories

Cleanliness
3.5
Multiple reviews report dirt on walls, persistent bad odors, mold, bugs, wet-smelling carpets and generally very dirty rooms—cleanliness is a major problem.
Service
9
Mixed reports but several mentions of helpful/polite staff (breakfast attendant, night staff in one report, clerk who found a lost bracelet). Some very negative front-desk experiences noted but positive recovery and helpfulness justify a strong service score.
Location
9.5
Multiple guests praised the location and quiet, relaxed setting and noted it as a good value for the price; location sentiment is consistently positive.
Room Quality
4
Frequent complaints about uncomfortable beds and flat pillows, scratched/small towels, bathroom tile coming undone, AC issues and plumbing problems; room condition and maintenance are below expectations.
Amenities
5
Some amenities work well (breakfast area), but issues reported include a dirty pool, ice machines out of order, no chairs in room and other broken/outdated facilities—mixed to below-average.
Value for Money
9
Despite problems, several guests said the location and quality for the price were good and would stay again, indicating perceived strong value relative to cost.
Food and Beverage
8.5
Breakfast receives repeated praise (hot, fresh, friendly attendant); a few notes about limited options or burned items but overall food service is a positive point.
Overall Experience
5.9
Mixed overall: some guests enjoyed location and breakfast and had helpful staff interactions, while others experienced severe cleanliness, plumbing and service issues leading to early departures or refusal to return.
