Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The staff was great, she was really great. 5 stars to her!.
1* make bigger room numbers so you can se them from the parking.
2* I dit not like that they take ”deposit” when you are a Expedia customer and you pre paid the room.
*the need to level up the interior when they have 2 stars
