Liked: Property conditions & facilities
Disliked: Cleanliness
The checkin was by pick up in a locksafe. Not a problem. No code for wifi. On calling the office there was no reply. Then told to leave a message and a staff member would call. Did not happen. We found cockroaches in the bathroom and a lot of dust/dirt on the floor.
