Liked: Staff & service, amenities
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The only bad part was that the rooms were smaller than expected and house keeping is not included. Also, there were a lot of little bugs in our room (looked like fruit flies) from the moment we entered. The blanket also gave my friend a rash on her arms and legs, not sure what caused that. Other than that, it was great and service was really nice.

Okay. Did not clean rooms daily. My room was on the first floor and required steps. Also, I am African-American and a security asked if I was a guest at the hotel which which did anger me. I did not report it.
