It's the worst I've ever been to. A manager named Sara and her assistant, Katherine, charge you an extra $40 if you go to the hotel with a reservation from somewhere else, in addition to what you pay on the website. I had to pay $40, and overall, the service was terrible. The room was dirty and the floor was horrible. Don't go to this hotel. The worst of the worst.
