"The workers were all amazing! As nice as can be & went above & beyond. The trouble I had was nothing on the floor of the shower to prevent slips. Felt very uncomfortable taking a shower. Also there are no hairdryers. The gentleman working overnight even tried to find me a room with one I could use. Finally found one but then the hairdryer didn’t even work. That’s a small amenity that should be in every room. Those 2 things would have me thinking twice about staying there again."
