William Edward

Disliked: Staff & service
Property was clean and well appointed. Breakfast was relatively decent, and the beds were extremely comfortable. Unfortunately, upon our arrival, the front desk staff was hostile, accusatory, and generally unhelpful. The experience was so impactful that unfortunately, it made our stay less enjoyable significantly. The lady who works the evenings needs to find a new job that doesn’t involve people
