Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
I have never stayed anywhere this dirty. We were given multiple rooms and each one was worse than the last — snails crawling around, bugs on the mattresses, and a general feeling of neglect. They even gave us the wrong room at one point. The night staff, especially Jane, was the embodiment of the hotel itself: worn out, tired, and completely uninterested in helping. This was beyond disappointing.
