Great hotel
Pros:

We loved the room it was updated modern and clean

Cons:

It felt unsafe at night when you check in you cannot go inside you have to be outside and the nice man helps you thru a window I couldn't hear him and that to me lost the customer service experience but he was super nice booking didn't cancel my previous reservation and I had two bookings and where going to charge me double but I show the nice man the confirmation on the previous cancellation and he canceled it🙏Thank you!!! (FYI) Try contacting some from booking and I couldn't it was the most frustrating thing I had experience nobody could help me.

My stay was refused simply for questioning why I was being over charged. Terrible service
Pros:

There was nothing to like about this property. It’s not welcoming do not stay here. Do not give this scammer your business he was very rude and unprofessional.The manager does not honor your booking price. He adds different charges when you arrive. He told me he just uses booking to bring him in business. That’s terrible this place is dirty and needs to be inspected.

Cons:

Please stay away from this site. Me and my wife booked a room through booking, 120.60 for 1 night. We arrive and the first thing we hear is the manager on the phone with booking arguing with them to remove a negative review, one that stated they added extra charges and had dirty rooms. The man checking us in first attempted to charge us 287 but he didn't know why when we asked. The manager stated it's a deposit of 150 refundable. The manager stated booking and them are different, we asked if they received our reservation with the price we were offered, they confirmed they received our booking. The manager finally got off the phone, We asked why would the not honor the pricing we got thru booking the manager stated "We are different and use booking to bring in customers, if you want a different price book with us directly don't use booking". The manager then stated he will honor the room rate with the 150 deposit, making the price 270, he even read the number slowly out loud to my wife as if she was dumb. As we are about to pay we see the price set to 285, the manager stated "it's taxes". My wife did the math getting 270 and as she was he rudely asked "So what are we doing?" Trying to make sense of the extra charges we asked why we have to pay taxes on booking and then through them. The manager ultimately refused our stay stating "you complain about the rent. I match the room and you complain about deposit. I'm refusing you two, you can deal with booking to cancel". On top of all of this, a woman walked in and demanded a room, the same manager gave her a room without question or deposit for 100 dollars flat.
We excuse the check in clerk, perhaps new. But the manager, actively trying to remove negative reviews; even boasting to whomever it was on the other line that he "has been able to remove negative reviews before and one bad review spoils the bunch".
