Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
I checked out of here two days early to move to another hotel. My room had quite a few mosquitos, the air conditioning wasn’t available until the end of the month and my room was too warm to sleep comfortably. But not having any outlets on either side of the bed was the clincher for me because I use a CPAP machine to sleep. The staff tried hard to make it right by providing a power strip extension cord, and offered to spray the room to rid the mosquitos, but I simply wanted to find another place and enjoy some restful sleep.
