There were discrepancies with what was advertised and the hotel offering. Although the hotel made up for the shortfall, it might be advicable to renegotiate engagement with the establishment and probably update the information provided on the app.

I enjoyed my stay at this hotel. Though it was only for one night, I feel like I got a good idea of what this place has to offer. Stellar customer service from everyone at the facility. Restaurant is open 24/7 and has a diverse menu. Close to the airport; although I was not impressed by the surrounding neighborhood. Overall, great spot for a couple of nights.
