Shady
The beds are stiff. The box springs have animal hair all over them. The shower does push out hot water it’s like warm. The housekeeping and front desk don’t communicate because if they did they wouldn’t have banged on our door three times to clean our room after telling them no thank you. Seemed like they really wanted to get us out of our room so they could come in and snoop. This place is shady and there’s always sirens and cops out. Never again.
