Anonymous, Nov 2019
Pros (+) The front desk staff was fantastic. Extremely friendly.
Cons (-) The room was crammed full of useless things and you can barely walk between the furniture. The bed was so close to the wall on one side that you couldn't get off the bed on that side. There was a chair in the room with a broken arm on it and crumbs under things on the desk. The group I was traveling with had a room with a clogged sink and they were unable to fix it.
