I’m disappointed with the cleanliness. The bathroom was dirty, the towels were not clean and there was random hair all over. Also, we were there 4 night and didn’t make our room up once. I had to look for clean towels and other things on my own. Location is good but they gave us last room down the hallway and were forgotten about.
