Travelled with family, Business traveller
Disliked: Cleanliness
Our room had dirty stains on the wall above the couch. We were left no sheets or blankets for the pull out couch. We had stayed previously and it was great. Our stay this time was less than average. We wont be back.

Not worth the money spent
Check in process was efficient and front desk staff was lovely. however room itself was in poor condition- had an awful smell, dirty towel left on the bathroom floor (presumably hadn't completed cleaning yet?), not enough towels for the three guests we had booked for. Could have been better.
