The staff are friendly and helpful but the hotel (other than the lobby area) is falling apart. Water damage, peeling wallpaper, tried to keep clean but needs massive upgrading-probably hasn’t been upgraded in 40 years. Ceiling in indoor pool area is flaking and falling off, air conditioner doesn’t work well in rooms at all, and overall just gross.
