The staff were very friendly. But the property/rooms do need attention. The room had a muggy smell, we had to open the balcony door to air out the room. Unfortunately the experience didn’t get better, when I laid down to go to sleep, to my shock there were bandaids on the outside of the night stand so when I rolled over I was staring right at them. I mentioned it to the desk clerk and he apologized, said he would let the housekeeping manager know but there was nothing compensated for it. I had to scrape them off with a coffee straw and thankfully I had some Lysol wipes handy. I also mentioned there was some hair on the bathroom floor when we arrived plus the sink wasn’t properly cleaned either. I was so grossed out that I didnt dare go for the included breakfast. I just felt super uncomfortable in the room.
