The location

The cleanliness. It was extremely unsanitary! We found left over rose petals, rose stems as well as an adult toy. I have been trying to call the property and no one answers!

Nothing.

Bad area! Walls are paper thin! You can hear traffic and trains and kids from 3 rooms down. Beds are very uncomfortable, they feel like a box spring with foam on top and the pictures on the site are very deceiving. Stains on everything in the room. Pay more and get a better hotel. Wish I did!

The bed was squeaky . I move a lot when I roll over the bed sounded like the wood was shifting and screws needs to be tightened or something
