Cons (-) Staff was terrible. When I went out, some personal belongs went missing from my room when it got cleaned and I informed a manager but they didn't seem to care. When I arrived back one night, I asked about room service and the front desk agent acted like I was bothering her and refused to make any eye contact with me
