As soon as we walked into the hotel the strong smell of cigarettes takes over your nose. The desk agent informed us that the hotel was smoke free which I assumed they changed the policy that day. Once we were given our room as soon as we stepped into the room I stepped on a roach. I thought okay this wasn't going to work. My husband had to use the bathroom when he lifted the toilet seat the lid twisted off the base. The toilet filled up very loud. I watched roaches crawl from under the bed, on the dresser, on the sink, on wall and from behind the headboard of bed. I sat in a chair until morning, we had no other place to stay since our flight was cancelled we ended up here because it was close to the airport and Expedia rating wasn't too bad. Our flight was cancelled for 2 days this hotel was so horrible we decided to sleep at the airport for a day than stay another night here.

place was good, rooms were good and spacious and very nicely furnished. room service was good. But what i dint like about the managenent was, the room service lady had entered our room in our absence using her access card. our door was open, and she was cleaning the bed as we entered. we had our valuables in the room. it is not right for the staff to get into the room without our permission. overall experience was great. totally worth it for the price.

On arrival went to the bedroom it smells of cigarettes so we called reception as we booked none smoking room, a staff member came and spray the room with air freshener. They are clubs in the hotel that made sleeping difficult for us, towels were old and hard to use on your skin. Breakfast was horrible I had toast and tea and portion of fruit the whole time I was there. The staff attending the dining room don’t clean tables and change table clothes after use. The reception and butlers were very help and the handy man good. Will not recommend this place with young family
