(1,002 reviews) The staff was courteous though the chicken progress was fairly long as they were distracted by some issues with another guests room. Our room was extremely small, much smaller than the other three rooms people in our group had but it was adequate. It could have been cleaner, there was still trash on the floor from the previous guests but overall it was comfortable.
