For $200 a night, we expected a much better room. This was adequate at best.
Cons:

The heater in our room was incredibly noisy. It woke us up every time it clicked on. We got no sleep.

It was good but when we first checked in our the beds werent made but they did accommodate us.
Pros:

Breakfast was good

Cons:

but we weren't allowed to take any food back to our rooms which my elderly parents were happy about that. The lighting in the room was very dark, there was only one lamp by the beside but there should of at least been another lighting somewhere else in the room. I asked one of the housekeepers if we could get at least one or two more towels because there was my parents and I so 3 of us with only 3 towels. I usually use 2 towels.

We did not stay after seeing the conditions.
Pros:

Nothing.

Cons:

Everything. The area was rough. Our group was ‘approached’ by two different ladies. There were fans in the windows of the hotel. The hotel itself was run down. After seeing the conditions and surrounding area, we opted to find other accommodations.
