“In my opinion, the upkeep seems to be an issue here; cleanliness and maintenance shortfalls have been noted, along with reports of excessive noise. The management's response to guest concerns appears inconsistent, which is a factor to consider. I think travelers may encounter functional problems, like broken elevators or malfunctioning systems, during their stays.”
