Only stay if you are desperate

Won’t stay here again. Thin sheets, damaged mattress, stained carpet, bent spoons, black hairs on bed, food remnants stuck under bench. Obviously not cleaned properly nor any pride taken in the presentation of the rooms. It’s robbery to charge $160 per night.

It was an excellent place to stay. Transport using the train into the city for New Year’s Eve. Then getting the train back & walking to the motel where I was staying. One suggestion would be if they could provide face washes with the towels & bath mat.
