Jeffrey

Disliked: Staff & service
I really dislike this trend of hotels/motels to not offer maid service except by request. Room was supposed to be cleaned every three days but they only give you 2 towels. Then my room wasn't cleaned so I had to tell the front desk and get another towel. And they didn't clean it. Just dropped off two more towels just pulled the comforter up didn't make the bed. Took the garbage out but didn't restock the coffee machine
