Okay Stay - Hotel is Clean But...

Hotel is in a great location and is in relatively good condition for its age. Service was good as well and hotel was clean for the most part. I did not try their restaurant. However, I did find a Bed Bug in my bed and had a few bites on my back from it. Thankfully there was only one and the hotel offered me to change rooms, free breakfast etc. to compensate. Decided to stay in my room after they cleaned it and did not have an issue the second night

Everything was excellent except one staff member who spoke to me with arrogance throughout my stay. He is at the front desk and his name is Ramses or something similar. When I first checked in he spoke to me with an arrogant tone and I was met with the same tone upon checkout. I didn't appreciate his attitude. Othe than that the hotel is what you would expect for that type of hotel. Other staff are friendly and helpful.
