The Manager Eric was great. There was nobody to greet us in reception when we arrived. Eric came to our door later and apologized for the lack of people. He suggested several things to do for the evening and also provided a device that was necessary to use the TV. The overall feeling was that the place was old and tired.

The dog there could understand English, but not the staff or people handling the property and no amenities were provided inside the room and even an used hand soap was left out in the bathroom with hairs left as it is everywhere. Spiders were seen crawling on the bed and under the sink in the bathroom and scared the hell out of us in the night. The heater was very loud and making thudding sounds whenever it auto stopped/restarted disturbing the sleep. Worst ever accommodations and for the exorbitant prices changed, never will recommend any one to this place ever, even if they give it for free. Not clean, not safe inside, not quiet. The TV is a small chinese table top TV where noting works and hardly any english channels to watch and not a smart TV either.
