missing signageold room
The entrance lacked clear signage. I found myself wandering around to locate the proper access point. The room felt dated. It definitely needs some updating. the noise from a nearby entrance door disturbed my sleep. I think a simple bumper would solve this issue. The pillows provided were inadequate.

The room was quite large and had everything I needed.
I stayed in one of the courtyard rooms, and it felt quite basic, REALLY. The Wi-Fi did not work in the room, frustrating. I noticed an old toothbrush left behind at the back of the wash basin. This made me question how clean the room actually was.
