Worst experience ever

Customer service by the front desk was very rude and unprofessional. We stayed on the 2nd floor, management watches you like a hawk, I felt uncomfortable at my stay here. I’m being 100% I would not recommend this place at all.

Poor customer service

I called to cancel my reservation due to a family emergency and the person who answered the phone was new and didn’t know if I would be penalized. She took my number and promised to have someone call me and they never did.
