It’s supposed to be a 4star hotel but the only thing 4 star about this place is definitely the location. Very close to many thing depending on what you like to do the, not to far from the mall and shopping area very much walkable, the staff were pretty nice as for the hotel room, soon as we walked in it smelled of mold and it was not clean but when I went to speak to the front desk they did provide us with a different room on a higher floor but that was all they did I do a lot of solo traveling this was a group trip some people weren’t happy.
