"My only issue is they had carpet cleaners in to clean the carpets. I thought it was only the public areas. But when I came back to the room at the end of the day my room carpet was still damp. I was not told the carpet cleaners would be in my room while I was gone. Nothing seemed out of place but I would’ve appreciated knowing ahead of time that they would be entering my room. Other than that I was happy with the stay."
