Horribe experience at this hotel.q
Pros:

The only thing good was the convenient location but my stay here was horrible.

Cons:

First, when I checked in, there was nobody around. I had to find someone and the person I found had no inkling of customer service. Second, I had to change my keys twice because it did not operate the elevator. Third, room service forgot to leave face towels and replenish the tissue box. Fourth, on the second night, there was a dead roach on the bathroom floor. Lastly, we were located in a entertainment zone so loud music was heard and booming through the room till 2am every night. If you want a good nights sleep here, this is no the place. I really should be offered some sort of refund for our horrible experience at this hotel.

Pros:

The room was beautiful we got the sunrise suit but unfortunately the air was broke and it was 85-90 degrees. We couldn’t enjoy the stay at all. The customer service at the front desk was terrible. They did absolutely nothing. They wouldn’t move our room or offer us anything except a feee breakfast that was trash. I’m so upset. This was for my birthday weekend and It was ruined ! DO NOT STAY HERE
