"staff is nice. place looks clean. Not sure if my deposit is refunded. I cannot find the ice machine.thanks for breakfast but they are all carbs. can you put in some protein in there like bacon for the bread? WIFI is NOT SECURE. pls investigate this. our devices will not open anything, it says your WIFI is NOT SAFE. whats the point of having free wifi if we cannot use it. THE DOOR is not secure either. I felt unsafe. We discovered it does not latch without forcing it hard. i have to put chairs...
