8/10 Very good

Very Nice
Really nice hotel but I expected more for the price. Like the key card machine didn’t work so I had to be led to my room each time. Then woken up at 9:30pm for housekeeping. Then disturbed at noon while showering even though I had a 1pm check out. But room was comfortable and well appointed. Polite staff.
