Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
We were never able to find the place! We called to get directions and ask about parking. The person that answered and was terribly rude because we had called for directions and another time to ask where we are to park. Instead of being helpful he was rude and wouldnt give us directions. We never even found the place, terrible way to treat people who are not local and having trouble. We left the city immediately and will never be back.
