Not for us…

(#4) The room was not comfortable at all. The flooring (carpet) had a musty oder and felt damp. There is no A/C in the room. Pillows were flat and probably really old. We used our own. They could use some fresh paint on the walls and doors. Key pad with code to enter the room. Anyone could enter that room with a code so a bolt for the door would make it more secure. We had driven for 14 hours and if we weren’t so tired we wouldn’t have stayed here. We only stayed one night.
