"I really do not want to write a bad review. The area was amazing walking distance to good food. Very safe location. The hotel was rough. Only 1 elevator worked. Pool was down for maintenance but no one was working on it. There are giant stains in the carpets around the hotel. Paint was peeling off the wall in my room, and the a/c in my room sounded awful.
