"The property was in a location that was difficult to reach by public transportation due to the lack of sidewalks. The lobby was nice but the room needed updating and didn’t have any amenities except for mounted shower gel & hair products. The bed was hard and uncomfortable. The staff was efficient and some people were very helpful."

8/10 Good
"We enjoyed our stay at this hotel but had few occasions with the dinner staff when they were very rude with us. They would not let us sit in the dining area as they had prepared the table for next morning and we didn’t want to sit outside. Even before we started eating or drinking they would come and ask us how would you pay which made us very uncomfortable. At one occasion the staff came to our room at 10:30 and knocked when clearly there was a Do not disturb sign hung on the door"
