Disliked: Cleanliness
The front desk was knowledgeable about restaurants in the area. and gave recommendations of places to try. We loved that there was a shuttle to take us to the the airport. The room smelled of urine. We did inform the front desk but when he came he said he could not smell because of having a cold, so he sprayed Febreze and left.
