Bed was fine, water was hot and the staff was friendly enough, BUT that didn’t make up for the following: (1) the room was hot and took a couple of hours to cool down once we turned the AC on, (2) the floor on the bathroom creaked very loudly and (3) there were a LOT of cosmetic issues that I won’t take the time to list. Our stay wasn’t horrible, but our room is badly in need of some maintenance attention
