The shower was dusgusting. The curtain had stains and mold. The room had a few different colors of paint and all were done poorly. The ice bucket was sticky and stuck to the table. It also had hair stuck in it. The staff seemed to avoid dealing with people staying at the property. There are tons of places to stay, I would avoid this one at all costs.

I would not pay more than $100/night to stay here! I wish I took pics of the room but I didn’t want the memory on my phone. Bathroom floor was dirty. Soap holder in shower needs to be replaced ASAP. It was disgusting. Mold or black dirt on baseboard in bathroom. Only 1 outlet available to plug in phone near the door. Walls are so thin I can hear the person next door coughing. The only thing great about this place is the location! Amazing location!! Walking distance to everything but I wouldn’t stay here again. I was traveling with a dog so my options were limited.
