Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Staff was immediately rude as soon as we walked in lobby. She seemed bothered for us to be there. Property grounds were filthy and many guests were outside hanging out all night. Looked like a high crime, drug trafficking location. . Seemed like they were regulars or friends with office/hotel staff.
