No pool and the elevators were broke the entire time we were there. We were placed on the 3rd floor and had to go up and down the stairs with my 77 yr old mother. At least a heads up of the broke things would have been nice.

My room smelled like dirty laundry when I walked in supposedly right after being cleaned. Lots of railroad and other workers stay there, if you plan to leave or eat early, you just can’t. The pool hasn’t been operational in years. It looks like so. I don’t know why they still say they have a pool and hot tub because they do not
