I'll start by saying the location was quite good. I walked in the room and while it seemed fine for a cheap 1 bedroom with 3 beds (2 twins in the main area) I noticed an unpleasant smell. I couldntquite tell where it was cominv from as everything appeared clean. I then sat down in 1 of the 2 tub chars (that were covered with cgair covers) to find that was the source of the smell. I tried to beutralhze the snell with essential oils and candles to no avail. Looted like the bathroom was recently renovated though..... it was the nicest oart of the room. 2 of the 3 nights we stayed the room lost lughts and hot water.

Adequate at best.

Room is just adequate. Good shower height and pressure. No room on sink vanity for your kit. Bed is very spongy but I was very tired and slept fine. Blanket on bed was filthy with actual crumbs on it so it hadn’t even been aired or shaken out.
