Room smelled like mildew so much so I went and purchased baking soda and put it out in cups. If I wasn’t so busy and barely there, I would have absolutely found a different hotel. Disgusting in the hallway the elevator is disgusting even in the bathroom. It looks so rundown.

The lobby was nice, but the room could use an upgrade. The hotel allowed pets and my room had a faint smell of dog poop. If animals are allowed, there should be no carpet!!
