I thought the staff was wonderful and the breakfast was very good. My room had a musty smell and the carpet was old and worn. The bathtub didn’t have a shower curtain. I think the hotel with some replacement items would be excellent.

Absolutely mortifying experience! Room wasn’t cleaned after a medical stay. Left over medical patches and excretion everywhere. Very very dirty floor tiles to the point it was black. Pictures to show. Bathtub was full of water to the top with particles everywhere back up… couldn’t shower. Health hazards everywhere serious infection disease conditions
