3.8/5Good! (267 reviews)
The hotel and staff itself were fine. The room obviously hadn’t had a deep clean because there was a used condom stuck on the accessible shower chair that pulls down in the bathroom. The front desk clerk immediately came and took care of it and sanitized the area, but it made us wonder about the rest of the room. Other than that a good nights sleep.
