8.8/10 Excellent! (1,007 reviews)
The property is OK it needs a lot of maintenance. The pool is not working and I think it’s been out of commission for a while. The ceilings are cracking in the room. The bathroom shower head was rusty. The toilet would not flush the maintenance had to come fix the toilet twice and after that it was still leaking water. This hotel needs some major renovation.
