underwhelming stay
dirty room delayed room service
the location was okay it allowed easy access to local attractions.
The room was not clean upon arrival there were stains on the carpet and dust on the furniture. i requested a room service that was delayed by over an hour. I had to call multiple times to follow up. the noise from neighboring rooms and hallways made it difficult to sleep.
