Room 103 was musty and smelled. Everything felt damp, including the carpet and bedding. The door handles, fixtures, and desk area had a film of dampness. We got to our room around midnight (too late to switch rooms) and left at 8:00AM. We told the front desk person that it was extremely musty, humid and damp in the room, and she apologized and said she woukd have maintenance look at it.
