Everything was good except for one of the front desk staff. He was rude and was on a power trip. Also I didn’t know housekeeping does mandatory cleanings even if I worked night shift and needed to sleep during the day when I got off work. The rude front desk guy insisted that I didn’t have a cash deposit, and after numerous times of telling him I did and to double check, he finally did and ofcourse I had a cash deposit. He didn’t even apologize for the inconvenience.

The bed was lumpy and very uncomfortable. The shower doors seemed like they would come off the rails if you used them. And contrary to what is noted on their website, there was no breakfast available, very disappointing!!
