"Everything was good. Room clean. Glad to be on the ground level."
Overall Score4.0/ 5
All good, except I felt sorry for the woman who was checking me in. She seemed to be doing everything and someone was yelling for her from another area as she was busy with me. She was the only employee I saw there and though I had a little bit of a hard time understanding her accent, she did a good job. she could have used some help.
