My stay at this hotel was a nightmare. The rooms reeked of Mariguana smell, and the Jacuzzi was disgustingly dirty and in terrible shape. When I showed the staff a picture of it, they were incredibly rude and unhelpful, refusing to refund me the $125 I paid for it. To top it off, there was no fridge in the room, no clean towels or rags provided, and the curtains were falling off the windows. The key card didn't work, making the whole experience even more revolting. Definitely avoid staying here at all costs.

I showed the staff pictures of the Jacuzzi that looked in very bad shape, and they were very mean, didn't care, and said no refund. It cost me $125. The room had no fridge, they didn't bring us clean towels or rags, the curtains were hanging from the window, and the key card didn't work; it was so disgusting. Avoid staying here ever, full of cigar smoke.

I had a terrible experience with this hotel. The Mariguana smell in the rooms was overwhelming, and the Jacuzzi was disgustingly dirty. The staff was unhelpful and rude when I showed them pictures of the state of the Jacuzzi, refusing to offer any refunds. The lack of a fridge, dirty towels, hanging curtains, and non-functional key card made my stay extremely unpleasant. I strongly advise against staying here.
