Gave me the ick

First of all, the staff was friendly and helpful. The hotel was extremely dirty (carpets), and needed updating. We were afraid to go barefoot in the hotel room. It smelled musty and moldy and the carpet felt damp. The bed was clean and comfortable though. We felt somewhat unsafe due to activity outside and some of the guests in the building.
