Staff was friendly, room set up was decent. But what grossd me out was a strong cologne odor when I walked into the room. The order was on the bed and the pillows which made me assume pillow cases sheets comforters were not switched out. Bathroom toilet made a loud rumbling noise when toilet was flushed.( Something with the pipes). Other than that I guess you get what you pay for
