Property was rather old and needed to be updated. Room smelled like old cigarettes, the tv remote did not work with the TV but TV had buttons on the side so it was ok. The other lock on the door was broken so you only had one instead of two. Staff were super nice and kind. Other than the ceiling in the roof being slightly damaged the room was clean.
