Room was an extremely humid and the ac was not helping. There’s no extractor in the bathroom so when you showered, the humidity goes into the room and worsens the situation.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
Cleanliness? Carpet is discolored and forget about vaccumming around the bed frame. There was food on the carpet around the bed from the last 30 guests. Showers took 10 minutes to get hot water and a single drink at the bar cost me $27. It was convenient, but will definitely look for a different place to stay next time.
