Disliked: Cleanliness
I booked through Expedia and when I went to check in and they checked my ID they told me I couldn’t stay because I’m not 21. Which that’s fine, but then when I asked if they could refund my stay they said no and that I would have to call the manager. So I’m very upset they not only let me book my stay but they also charged me when they told me that I could not stay there
