Disliked: Cleanliness
Room was not clean. Pink splatters in the sink, countertop also splattered, hair in the shower, shower caps scattered on bathroom floor, and dirty carpet that had clearly not been vacuumed. The lady at the front desk hurriedly “cleaned” it for us as she had no other available rooms but it still wasn't very clean.
