Pros:

Location was great! Parking was little difficult but it was big enough!

Cons:

Customer service wasn’t all there. Bathroom was missing soap and shampoo. I asked for refills but they didn’t refill it.

I really couldn’t figure out who worked there. Most of the time I just tried to look confused until someone asked if I needed help. Other wise I’d look for a cleaning person to help me.

Pros:

Las facilidades para ingresar y el check out no fue tan temprano...

Cons:

El acceso vehicular necesita ser mas bajo, con facilidad se puede dañar un vehículo. Las zonas que se encuentran en obra podrian esconderse mejor...
