"Overall we had a great stay at a new modern place with an awesome location. Some negatives we experienced were a minor smell of smoke in the room, a musty smell in the hallway outside of our room, and also I disliked the lack of communication that I wouldn’t be getting my code to my room until exactly 4:00. I got there 15 min early and was very confused about how to check in."
