Not sure how to even start this comment. First off properly is very nice. Ok here it goes. The toilet was a problem. Let’s just say when used my appendage would shall we say take a swim. This is annoying and it’s something that usually doesn’t happen. I hope you guys can fix that. Also throw away that military surplus toilet paper. Many thanks

When we walked out of the elevator the smell was so stuffy and bad I walked in the room and it was worse. Very stuffy and I walked into the bathroom and there was mildew on the ceiling. I called receptionist and she immediately offered to move to another room I asked to move to the downstairs because the small upstairs was bad. The room downstairs was still stuffy but not as bad as upstairs. There was still mildew on the ceiling in the bathroom. Will not stay there again. Also, it’s right next door to a cementary :( that was our view outside the graves. Disappointed.

Overpriced, needs some attention!

Bathroom in much need of renovation, some components were crusted with filthy. Bedsheet had tear in it. Mixture of old dingy towels and some new. Minimal outlet to plug in charger. Cabinetry was gouged/damaged. Glad we only stayed one night. Not worth $145!!
