9.2/10 Wonderful! (488 reviews)
The room was smaller than expected. And I the toilet made a running sound like it was not filling up and the lid to the toilet was off when we arrived. When I flushed the toilet it sound like the chain broke or got tangled so we had to take the toilet lid off and then play with the chain to get the water to fill up so it can flush again. Before we did that the toilet would not flush. And it was making a loud running water noise. But we fixed it. I’m not if it was because we booked through Hotels.com instead of directly that they gave us the smallest room and one with a toilet not working properly? Either way, glad it was a 1 night stay. Other than that it was a good stay.
