The front desk staff was polite and super friendly HOWEVER we only had one pillow on the bed and 2 towels. When we asked for more towels we were told they couldn’t get us any. 2 towels for 4 people. Outlets were broken, tv didn’t work properly, tiles missing from bathroom, and the tub didn’t work. We made do, but would not recommend staying here.
