Positives: Beds were comfy and shower was nice
Negatives: They charged me at the property and when we got home they charged me again. After contacting them to figure everything out, they told me I still owed them money. We stayed 1 night. And in total they have charged me almost $500 when my total was half that.

Positives: When I booked this room online I asked that I receive confirmation when the room was clean and requested it be ready by 5-6pm, which is an option in the booking process. Never received confirmation it was ready, went to check in at 6pm and received confirmation text the room was ready AFTER checking in. Walk inside the lobby and nobody was around. Stood there waiting to check in and see a woman getting a beverage at the beverage station in the lobby. 10 min later she asks if we are guests wanting to check in and then decides to make her way to the desk to check us in. Room wasn’t cleaned thoroughly, greasy handprints all over the windows among other things. No chairs to sit in at the area to eat in the kitchenette as shown in photos. Booked the room to simply sleep for the night so nothing extra was ordered. Also, was charged more money randomly after checking out (attempted multiple times) and never got a receipt for my stay, the extra charges incurred or any communication from the hotel. Will never stay here again.
Negatives: Communication

Disappointing
Diana solo traveller June 1, 2024
Positives: The breakfast was good. I had the special of the day once and it was very good. The chef prepared exactly what I wanted.
Negatives: I didn't like that my room was never cleaned. I arrived on a Monday and checked out on a Friday. I had to go to the front desk to ask for clean towels. I was given only one wash cloth when I arrived. Was told that rooms were only cleaned every third day or so. The funny thing there was a notecard on the room desk that told you how to tip housekeeping.
