Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
When I first arrived, the suite was greatly worn; however, I was only staying one night while visiting family, so I felt the room would be tolerable---Wow...was I wrong! The ceiling in the bathroom was grossly peeling. I had noted urine on the bottom of the toilet; the bodywas dispenser didn't have a nozzle to use; the sign behind the main door looked like a dog had chewed it in half and it was still fastened to the door. That wasn't even the worst of it--that night , I woke to multiple bed bugs!!! I readily gathered my belongings and went to the front desk to inform them of the bed bugs and my intention to leave immediately.
