The staff were really nice. They were helpful and kind. The room was pretty dirty. The carpet was coming up in places and it wasn’t clean. The bathtub didn’t drain properly so every time we took a shower, it filled up and then slowly drained. The location was good. It was easy to walk to different places. My sister and her husband stayed there as well and their room was updated. It was cleaner. The coffee pot was cheap and only did a tiny bit of coffee at a time. My sister and her husband and my husband, and I felt that it should’ve been nicer for the amount of money we spent.
