Very nice Stay!

excellent serviceprofessional behaviorgood communicationvalet parking
Amal and Rumesh displayed excellent service! I really loved their training and their behavior. They were so professional! They communicated very well, which I appreciated. I will return soon!!!
The valet parking caused some frustration. The receptionist stated the valet parking was free . the valet staff asked for payment when I retrieved my vehicle. This issue happened twice. Clear communication between staff is essential.

Cleanliness Concerns and Service Lapses

room cleanlinessinconsistent communication
My stay had some significant issues. I found the room cleanliness to be questionable. There were hairs in the bathroom and dust in corners. The service at the front desk was slow. It took a long time to check in. Communication between staff members also seemed inconsistent.
