Yes, the staff never expressed care. I requested my room to be cleaned and was not on the list as the morning staff told me. My refrigerator did not work. Maintenance never came. To top things off tgere was a flying asian ladybug that bites. Of course the front desk used a user excuse as as they always when you call them for something which is they can't leave the front desk they're the only ones there there's no maintenance there there's no housekeeping there I've only seen one housekeeper since I've been here and that's only because I had to call back again to ask for my room to be clean the carpet smell like feet that lady cleaned the room and did not even do anything to the carpet it's just atrocious it's like they just want you to book a room take your money and then that's it everything else is on you
