Good parking. Nothing worked properly. Elevator needs work. The refrigerator not working at all. Lamps not working. Shredded curtains. No trash bags. The worstwas the towels. So dirty, three of them had máscara on them and one of them had what looked like blood stains. The rest of towels were yellowish. Never seen such dirty towels in a hotel. I thought this place would be so much better than this.

Not in a great neighborhood but parking lot was safe. The TV channel list was incorrect. Had to request a microwave to get one. But they did find one promptly. They wouldnt break a 20 bill I planned to use for a tip. But the bed and bathroom were very good and it was very quiet. Very clean. Hallway was under repair. Breakfast inferior to the Hampton Inn.
