Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Room was filthy, towels had stains, hair and lint on the floor, bedding had stains, door knobs and doors had stains, shower curtains had stains. Staff was not the friendliest very stale interactions. Only good thing was the location in the marina. I should have dished out the extra $20-30 bucks to stay in a nicer place.
