Disappointing

The room was very run down and in need of repair. The floor was lifting. The desk chair was broken and I actually fell onto the floor.

You can tell that many thousands of dollars were spent renovating this property. Unfortunately the bathroom is very small to start with so there is very little counter space. The bed was excellent but the dresser looked like something from the 1950’s. The TV was very small and a floor lamp was broken. The heat and air conditioning were old but worked fine

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
It was nice. Bed was comfortable which is very important to me and the location was convenient as well. The bathroom was nice but a bit dated. The tub was narrow and you had to be careful not to slip. One of those non-slip mats would have been a good thing to have. There was also no face cloth which I thought was odd. Other than these couple of things, everything else was fine.
