Overall it was a nice hotel I liked how they had shampoo and conditioner in the restroom nicest hotel I’ve gone to so far. I didn’t like that the curtain shade didn’t go all the way up so i couldn’t sleep past 6am. Another issue I had was the whole room smelled like bleach from the blanket and pillows the smell was pretty strong was kinda hard to sleep with.
