Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The room was ok. Nothing special. Pillows were super thin and uncomfortable. Bathroom window screen falling off and window left open list someone was trying to get in. Noise outside the room were out of control. People yelling and slamming doors. Sounded like someone was trying to get in our room. No security at night. Did not feel entirely safe. Will not be staying there again.
