The lady who checked me in was very kind. The problem is the condition of the hotel. It can use an upgrade like yesterday, and the bath towels were old and hard as a brick! I am so happy that i brought my own towel. The place is not a loss, it just needs some TLC!

The front desk woman was nice the property was subpar. The medical bandage and ekg electrodes stuck to the shower curtain really sealed it. They seem to be remodelrng but the sense is spend as little as possible in upkeep. The smell as you walk in sets the tone. I hate saying it but this property should be removed.
Medical waste stuck to shower curtain.   How do you miss this if you clean the room?
