Pros +
- the front desk.
- I appreciated that the staff was nice enough to decorate the room with the stuff I had delivered for my boyfriend’s birthday.
- Rooms were so clean and the location.
Cons -
- Roaches, odor, run down. Misleading advertising.
- Hotel room was great but the grounds of the property could use some better renovation. Still great for a 3star hotel. Would like room service & add-on services like rose petals, etc.
- No
