Best hotel I've stayed Soo far
My family and I stayed there for a night and it was perfect, great customer service, good food even though I would recommend having more options, clean and spacious rooms, everyone was great at what they do. Definitely staying again when we visit and hopefully longer than just a night.

I will have to file for refund, because I don't know how you have this hotel listed on your website. First, they lie about the distance between the airport and the hotel, second their phone number is not operational, third when I asked about them no one seems to know where they are. For the night, I had to find another hotel on the spot spending extra money that I did not plan on spending

Central Location
Not sure who is responsible for rating this as a 4 Star on Expedia but it is clearly not. Believe that. This is easily a 2 star hotel. Pros: Room was clean Cons: Bathroom was dirty. No curtain in the window of the bathroom, so as a female, well you already know. Only one roll of toilet paper provided. You have to keep calling to ask for more and you'd only get just one again No room services for 6 days. Same sheets 2 towels for 6 days No water provided in the room. Once has to buy regular bottled water at a crazy premium.
