The room was clean, breakfast was fantastic and the staff was so nice and helpful! Beds were comfortable and they have an iced coffee bar in the morning! The hotel is a bit rundown, and renovations are actively being done - so it’s a bit messy. We had a pullout couch but no available linens-and it took a while to get linens delivered.
