Pros:

It just did not seem very clean, and had a strange smell. Overall, it could be updated and deep cleaned with detail.

Pros:

The property was lovely. They have a little bar where the prices were very reasonable. The staff was helpful when we had questions and were friendly. The only “complaints” we had were that our sink in our room was blocked up and drained suupppeeerrr slowly, and the air conditioner didn’t work well. When we turned it on high it started to drip a lot of water and wet our luggage.

Overall though we were fairly happy with the hotel for the price, and it was nice that they included airport shuttle!

Pros:

Only had a one night stay between transfer flights so wasn’t expecting a great deal, hotel was basic but functional, with clean bedding, which was all we kind of expected at the price paid. Free shuttle a bonus and staff were all really friendly and couldn’t help enough

Pros:

The room as not very clean. The shower had mold and was not clean. On the floor there was yelling in the halls and partying until 4 in the morning. The staff did nothing about this. The noise and chaos began again at 8 AM. My luggage was stowed while I was away for a couple of weeks. Upon return they could not find my luggage. It took 20 minutes to find it. It was not tagged properly. I would not stay here again. The price was good, but it was not restful and caused me stress.
