Property says free WiFi but no one shared the password at check in, after I went to get it myself there was no WiFi for almost 2 full days. If you’re going for work, it’s impossible to get any work done. Bathroom drain backed up making a pool out of the shower.

The property is A little unique with a little touch of pizzazz. The bedroom has a sitting room that's about as large as bedroom. The unit is very spacious. I did notice that although the tile floor appeared to be clean when I wore my socks around the place, it was filled with debris and strange hair. A shower drain was a little slow. It got filled up the first time but I did plunging using my hand and foot and it drained better . Outside of that, no complaints

The customer service at the hotel is great and accommodating. The hotel is located in a safe area with very walkable coffee shops and restaurants within the same street. I didn't like how there was no gym at the hotel or even a lobby bar. The hotel is very small therefore the lobby area is tiny. I didn't eat at the restaurant attached to the hotel so I can't speak on that aspect. The room was decent sized. It didnt have an iron or ironing board/steamer so you have to call and ask. Also the shower looked a bit outdated and so did the room. The photos are definitely nicer looking than the actual room. Overall, not bad, decent for the price but I don't think i would return.

the attention was very poor, they charged me hotel tax that was already covered by expidia, on the second visit I made to the hotel of $ 12,000, where the first person who attended us on the first visit, did not charge us !! With Expedia I have never paid this tax since everything is included in the reservation and the person never gave me the proof of payment of the tax, but rather took the money and placed it in the petty cash, and will do so with all clients, I was reserved on July 5 and the first person who attended me on June 14, never charged us this amount, I am reporting this since I do not want it to happen to another person and pay attention to this person who attends at reception. Thank you !!

Im giving this review 3 stars because while the service from the staff was generally good, my overall experience was disappointing due to the room situation. I paid extra to book a Deluxe Room, but was given what was clearly a Junior Suite – which is a lower-tier room according to the hotel’s own website. When I raised this with the front desk, I was told I had been given the Deluxe Room, despite clear differences between what I booked and what I received. At that point, I felt either I was being lied to directly or the website is highly misleading with incorrect photos and room descriptions. Either way, it’s unacceptable for a property to advertise one thing and deliver another. If you’re considering upgrading your room, I would recommend double-checking everything before you arrive and taking screenshots of your booking details and the room photos. It’s unfortunate, because the service otherwise was pleasant, but this left a sour taste in what could have been a great stay.

We went on a Friday and Saturday night. Friday there is a nightclub, not sure if it's in the hotel or next to it, but there was no rest that night with the walls pounding from the music, Saturday night was a little less noisy but still inconvenient. We all ended up with bed bug bites. Room was large and roomy, AC was cold.
