It looks like it is an older property that they are trying to remodel. Our first room had holes in the walls and ceiling where the new lights did not fit the original holes. There was construction spackle splashes on the walls and closets. The roller paper holder was damaged and hole in the wall next to it. The shower head was a mess

Room was ok, lots of large rats outside around the property and they decided to paint a room right beside me and the paint fumes were strong. They did offer to move me but I was there for business and had all my clothes hung up so just dealt with for my last day.

The property is conveniently located in the same area of the event where we intended to attend. We felt safe, and parking was easy. Also there are plenty of restaurants close by to the Inn, although not quite walkable. However, we had some issues with the room - there was a cockroach on the wall and we were able to stomp it off. We notified the front desk person and asked for a disenfectant spray since we didn’t feel safe spraying a bug spray while we were inside the room. The room also has a musty smell but it wasn’t overwhelming. Lastly, the heater fan was very loud that it prevented us from having a good sleep. At first, we thought the heater noise was only from our room, but on our way to have breakfast we hear the same loud noises coming from the other rooms. Otherwise, we are open to staying here again.

Room was clean and beds were comfortable. Bathroom had a lot of water damage around the tub area. Shower head was good and plenty of hot water. It was a good place, but could use a little work on the bathroom.
