great location friendly staff perfumed scent smaller room dusty lamps lacking hygiene
The location was great! it was so close to restaurants, and i could easily walk to entertainment areas! the staff were friendly. They couldn't do enough to. the room had the most beautiful perfumed scent. It really made an impression on me!
The room was smaller than i expected. It was difficult to move around comfortably! the shower glass had streaks, and i found some dust on the lamps! plus, i discovered some clothes left behind the curtain. Hygiene seemed to be lacking a bit.
