Maylin

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Room was disgusted, the duvet was stained with blood from precious stays, Which means that they don't clean or change the bed linen. First night we had to change the room at 2 am because of the sound coming from air conditioner and the second room was worse which we left because for three days changing rooms every day doesn't make sense to me. The doors are all destroyed. and very bad smell. The truth is that the stay was terrible, I had never had such a bad experience in a hotel in Orlando.
