Absolute tourist trap. I was assigned to room 220. The back of the entry door was covered in graffiti. Comments replying to other comments so no, it wasn’t all from one person. Caked up lint everywhere, hard bed, ceiling Sheetrock had a leak and looked disgusting, shower was leaking when I entered the room including an old old tub and the wall beside the bath regularly gets wet. Absolutely zero care about what the customer walks into. GROSS. DO BETTER.
