Rude person at front desk… not welcoming… no sense of accommodating or answering questions… simply doing job…no interest in being cordial… like my walking up was an imposition to make her get up off her seat in the back to walk to counter… when I asked a question curt answers… this hotel needs a facelift… worn out & not worth the money
