Below are the verified reviews from guests that we have booked recently:"Dirty rooms, mildew smell, nice courtyard."
Overall Score2.0/ 5
Traveled here for a youth sports tournament. Parents shared that the rooms smelled weird, maybe mildew. Another had to have sheets changed as they were placed in a dirty room. Issue was resolved but still did not get a good nights sleep in a room that was not cleaned.
