Most of this property was nice except one major thing.
We found a few roaches in our room. One in the bathroom and one in the main room. That scared my wife.

Receptionist that works nights threatens to fight you if you ask for any help. Didn’t want to let me speak to a manger for 3 days. Feces on toilet paper at check in. And overflowing toilets.

Had to get my room changed because I was in a room right next to the elevator and the side entrance door which didn’t lock.
Elevator and door were extremely loud!
