Liked: Staff & service, amenities
Disliked: Cleanliness
The price was very good and included breakfast. My only concern is that the floors on the main level were filthy. I realize there was some construction going on in one hallway, but they left trash scattered everywhere every day in full view on the walk to the dining area. I brought this to the attention of the manager on duty and she didn’t seem to think it was a big deal and would not agree to have it cleaned up. Meanwhile, the housekeepers were walking by her when she said this with cleaning supplies in hand. Doesn’t make sense to me! Also the floor on the bottom of the elevator was filthy and every day got worse.
