Liked:The location

Disliked:The rooms are not that clean, there's never enough towels, customer service leaves and does not return until the next day at approximately 10 am the tvs never work, the fridge makes a squeaky sound, the shower head sprays everywhere. When I started coming here back in 22 the place was very nice and I was extremely happy. But not anymore. I think I'll take my business somewhere else.
