I really enjoyed the Momo! Cleanliness of the rooms was excellent, they were updated and very stylish. The only issues I had were with small things like service hours for the lobby/bar and an issue after check out with being double charged. (I have not yet tried to reconcile the double charge but based on the interactions with positive interactions with all staff, I have no concerns and expect this will be reconsiled in a courteous and professional manner.
