5.1Fair
Jose, Nov 2019

Pros. Room was clean

Cons. Breakfast was mediocre. No lobby Building was under construction so you have to check in on the 18th floor. Refrigerator in room didn’t work Fan in bathroom was excessively loud and could not be turned off. So I kept the bathroom door shut in order to watch television at night Great floor to ceiling windows but were dirty on the outside which took away from the view Overheard staff arguing with a customer over the phone then heard staff using vulgar language to other staff member regarding the customer
