The place worked for what we were there for so we honestly didn’t spend a lot of time IN the actual space. We came for the football game with another couple so it was perfect for us. There is only one bathroom but there is a mirror in the one room so we still could get ready and not be on top of each other. The place looks like it’s being upgraded so when it’s finished it will be great.
