Decent Hotel

The room was small, smelled like mildew in the hallway and room. The Canadian at the front desk was not very helpful and didn’t have a map of the city. The hotel does have the best view of the river and city if you stay in room 323. Breakfast and dinner were good, but crowded due to a large group staying at the hotel.
Some really smelly repair
