Shower handles were loose. Water temperature would vary from freezing cold to scalding hot within minutes depending on the water supply demand (if several guests were using the water at the same time). There was a pipe running along the ceiling that dripped condensation on us. There was a lounge area right outside our room, and were either kept awake late or woken early by other guests talking. We were instructed that the AC unit in the room was not to be any lower than 70F. The hair dryer provided in the room had a plug that was beginning to fall apart, and wires inside were beginning to be exposed. The front desk staff was friendly and helpful up until the last morning when we checked out at 5:00 AM to catch an early AM flight. At that time, front desk attendant was sleeping at the desk and completely confused when I explained I was checking out. The location of the property was very convenient. I would not recommend this property.

We were in the 3 queen suite and it was amazing! Balcony over the street below was great. Only downfall was that the noise at night was loud from the party below. We would definitely stay again!

We stayed in the smallest room, #14. It was very small for two people. I would recommend it for a one night stay maximum. Overall, the property was very nice and had a convenient location. It was fine for our one night stay.

terrible experience

The kitchen/coffee area is self-serve. Guests are to wash their own dishes and cutlery and replace them for the next guest. There was no dish soap in evidence so how can one know if the cup you want to use is clean? The staff also used this area for coffee and that was a bit odd. The "room" was so tiny there was hardly any room for suitcases and the room door was glass with wallpaper glued on the inside, but allowed all the light from the hallway to shine in. There was no place to charge our phones conveniently and the bed was on a homemade frame with 4x4 posts for legs and a 2x6 frame too high off the floor for comfortable access. The bathroom was O.K., although the toilet seat was loose.
