8.6/10 Excellent! (3,792 reviews)

First, i would go back here. Its a decent place. Friendly staff. Nice room. It would have been better if i had been told no one would ckean or even offer new towels for tge $280 per night room. It would also be nice to have proper cooking "tools" ... a pan that matches the size of the element, glasses to drink from, a mixing bowl. There is a really nice kitchen, but it's hard to cook in it. Overall, a solid okay.
