"The room was clean but that is about all. Bed was jiggly. The bathroom was so tiny the door to the room was a joke. It was like a flimsy closet door any one could have broke through. Very over priced for what you received. Breakfast in the morning was okay. 2eggs 2 sausage and toast"

"Without the elephant there, it is not worth staying there. The food I ordered was delivered cold and not very good. I ran out of hot water could not shave. The Internet is terrible. On my last day there we started to lose power. I would never stay there again."
