Pros- Room was good and clean. Good location. Cons- Had a lot of issues during checkout. I had bought few breakfast vouchers and was charged double the amount for them. Someone else's food bill was added to my account. After receiving the final invoice, my credit card was charged more that the invoice amount. I've been on calls with atleast 2 people from the hotel and no one has been able to resolve my issue
