1. The staff is very poorly trained and disorganized (I had to ask 4 people until I finally got an answer if they charge a connection fee when dialing a 800 number).

"High price, poor service " Read full review on TripAdvisor 3/18/2010 Vote

2. The rooms are very basic and poorly finished, the shower regularly blocked and overflowed, there was no air conditioning control, rooms are small, not even a chair in the room.

3. The elevator was poorly maintained and should have been the first indicator as to what we would expect in our room.

4. The room is poorly soundproof so every (I mean every) sound from the adjoining rooms was completely audible and the worse was the room upstairs with the walking and the bed screeching, terrible.
