There was no spa and the bar wasn't open. The cleaning lady left trash in the room for three days. The room was like beat up almost the elevator in the middle literally broke and doesn't work and they didn't attempt to fix it. The vibes of the hotel was a little scary.

As long as you go into this hotel realizing it's a value hotel, it's a good recommendation. The location is amazing, the people are nice, and generally everything worked (good water pressure, great AC unit), but it is very run down. It's a shame, because you can tell it was built as a very nice hotel, but it has not been well maintained. The photos look nice, but in reality, everything is worn down and tired. The biggest issue was only having one of the elevators was working, which created a bottle neck getting to the rooms.

The hotel offered additional services for a charge but failed to respond to questions. The rooms need a bit of an update. The coffee was not found in the mezzanine as offered and there is no coffee in the rooms.

Couple thoughts: - there were no lights in the room - the elevators were broken the entire trip so everyone in the entire building had to use 1 lift which resulted in anxiety and multiple panic attacks -you can see through the shower to the bedroom so everyone in the room can see you -the air conditioner was broken -the lobby is as if you walked into the bad part of Alice and Wonderlands trip -terrace was closed -we reserved two queens and they were mini full sized beds The only redeeming quality of this place was the cleaning crew. They were incredibly helpful, wonderful to engage with and genuinely cared about our satisfaction. Wish the property manager cared half as much as the on site staff Will not return
