Only complaint was that couldn't figure out how to use the tv remote probably because I am electronically challenged. Other than that I give the place high marks as a budget hotel. This is not the first time I have stayed there and by virtue of the fact I'm a repeat customer, they must be doing something right.

terrible, never come

I arrived the hotel at 3:30pm, but the front door was locked. I tried to call the number on the door again and again, but no one answered because no one in the reception at all. I left a message on the phone, but no reply, either. Since I was going to have an important meeting with my clients on that night and really needed a shower and a place to put my luggage. Without any choice, I went to other hotel. I asked for refund and needed a reasonable compensation on my loss.r

決してお勧めしません。宿泊者は覚悟を持ってください。”

どうしても泊まりたいなら、以下のことにご注意ください。 1,マネージャーがお金に汚くて、後から理由をつけて不当なお金を請求されます。 2,自分宛に荷物を送っても受け取ってくれません。FedExで送ったら、マネージャーが受け取りを拒否したようで、しかも配送センターに取りに行くのに100ドル請求されました。 3,部屋は汚くて、床がべとべとしています。 4,朝食はついていると書いていても、何もありません。聞くと拒否されます。 5,マネージャーやスタッフの態度は悪いです。特に女性マネージャーの態度が悪い。 6,宿泊最終日には何もしてくれなくなります。 7,服の洗濯は1回12~20ドル取られます。その時のマネージャーの気分で値段が変わります。
