Unlike my stay here two weeks ago, this time it was great. Check-in was a breeze and the lady at the desk was great! However, the cloth shower curtain stunk horribly, the water in the shower would only get luke warm, and the shower was slow to drain, leaving several inches of water in the tub. The lady at the front desk did offer to let us have a different room and provided a can of air freshener for the stinky bathroom. I appreciate her efforts. Bathroom and shower sucked but the bed was comfortable.

The shower faucet was confusing for hot water so I had lukewarm for a shower. The tub drained extremely slowly. We told the front desk and they were very appreciative for the information.
