The room was clean and the bed and pillows were nice and comfy. Parking was a little tight but due to larger vehicles. Room was reasonably priced. Walking distance to restaurants and shops.

Key cards didn’t work so had to get them replaced. Room smelled bad and there was a constant buzzing sound. Couldn’t figure out where it came from.

When I went to check in, mgr was so nice. She was telling me about the kite festival going on and if there's anything I need just to let her know. The property was so clean and so very close to everything. My family walked to the rock. Extra pillows were provided and room was very clean. I thank MGMT for such a good time.
