An Okay Stay, But Room Had Issues
dirty shower poor maintenance
The hotel location worked. It sat near to transportation.
I must admit, the room had significant issues. The shower cleanliness left a lot to be desired with hair on the floor. The lack of proper maintenance was disappointing for what I shelled out.
