Everything was great! The few things I have feedback on is the lack of storage, hooks or towel racks. I noticed water damage in the communal area. I think that if the rooms were nicely updated to match the vibe of the rest of the hotel, it would be five stars. That said, I would stay here again!

This property looked nothing like the pictures. There was not hot water for our showers . They give you 1 towel for your entire stay . But no wash cloth or hand towels. They dont tell you that you have to empty the de humidifier twice a day to keep your floors dry . Well ed Puerto Rico.. but not the location we stayed in it was run down . Getting food was a challenge

If you eant to feel like you have beento hell on vacation then stay here. The property is spit into 2 different sites with scary houses in between. There is no staff on site. The pictures are not accurate at all. There were bugs and hair in the bed. The couch/pullout bed was broken. It smelled of mold and disappointment. Do not stay here

Fault advertising, hot water never came up no closet, I thought I closed the door with lock to realize we slept with the door open. No receptionist at the front desk. If it was up to me I would send inspection to look around the place. Plus is like a guest house not hotel Very dissatisfied

It has nothing, not a table, chair, or nightstand. It's a small board on the wall, a single electrical outlet. You couldn't even charge your phone. The area is horrible. You have nowhere to park. You have to come back early if you want to be safe. You're supposed to go for a walk and come back late. And the worst part is that the sheet is a pillow, meaning you have to make your bed. Bad, not really bad. I regret that place and I don't recommend it.
