Our experience was good except for cleanliness. We've stayed there several times and it's been great however, this time the bathroom was very dirty! Hair everywhere! dust everywhere! and the toilet was dirty! The seat was clean but otherwise dirty. You could see it hadn't been cleaned In a long time, not just missed once .Soap scum on the shower walls! The base of the toilet was very dirty! The facecloths were stained with makeup??? I found 2 like that!! In the room the lamps and furniture were very dusty. Also the sheets were very worn and "nobby". I took pictures and was going to tell the staff but there was quite a few people at the checkout counter and I didn't want to bring it up in front of them. That's why I'm writing this review.
