could have been more specific

disrespectful at the front desk. also service was bad. they gave me two different addresses (one on email and one on text message) and we went to the wrong one first and it ended up being very far and not in any sort of central location. place was nice looking and had comfortable environment though.

Moyen comme endroit. Attention à ce qui marqué sur le site car nous nous sommes rendus et surprise...pas de changement de lits, ni serviettes, pas de seche-cheveux (même si c'est marqué) pas de wifi sauf espaces spécifié. Le proprietaire n'était pas là pour des renseignements. En plus l'adresse n'est pas où tu loges.....il a fallu prendre un taxi pour aller à une autre endroit.....decevant.
