The room is too small for a Queen bed, which is one of our requirements in selecting a room. The bed was less than a foot from one wall, and a TV mounted on that wall made it nearly impossible to get out on that side of the bed. Management should not have put a Queen bed in such a small room, nor should they have charged as much as they did for such a small room.

The facility fee $22 plus facility fee tz of $2.20 was not mentioned as Hotels website indicated that the price included all fees and taxes. When I checked in it was not mentioned either. The check in person said that I was all paid up and my credit card would only be used if I charged something to the room. Instead I was charged an additional $68.

Luggage storage was an easy process. Room was fairly clean besides a few spots in the corner of the showers and some usual wear and tear around the door and on the TV remote. Didn't get housekeeping while I was there but I was in the room when they called me in the early afternoon to ask if I needed anything. I did get upgraded to a queen room which was still fairly small. Glad I got upgraded because I don't know if I could have handled the smaller room that I booked. Overall a solid 4.5 out of 5 stars

The breakfast was passable but the staff person didn’t speak English so it was difficult to find out what was available. We didn’t realize we could have eggs so we had pastry.

Me ofrecieron una habitación más grande, pero estaba justo al lado del elevador, lo que prácticamente hizo imposible dormir. El ruido constante de las máquinas y del propio elevador resultó muy molesto. Además, aunque la habitación era más amplia, tenía una litera y el espacio resultaba reducido e incómodo. He estado en otras habitaciones del mismo hotel y la experiencia ha sido mucho mejor, por lo que esta estancia fue una excepción desafortunada.
