Liked: Staff & service
The reason for my average rating was the over powering smell of musty/mold in the room. I did notice an outside water leak going down the window and dripping on the side of the building. The staff was polite and helpful. I need to give an A rating to Harry the shuttle driver. He was a highlight to my day.

A little getaway
Everything was great. The beds weren’t the most comfortable. But they were better than most places I’ve stayed at in the past. And the moisture in the room was kinda bad. The floors stayed a little slick and my wife’s book she had curled bad due to the moisture. But for the price and proximity to the DBAP. It was perfect. And out of all the hotels I’ve ever stayed at. This place has the best staff. I definitely would stay there again.

Property and staff were fine. Upon arrival the Expedia reservation was not showing in the hotels computer. We contacted Expedia who said they were calling the hotel however that never happened. We ended up asking for a refund from Expedia.
