Good location, decent food and staff was amazing. Biggest downside for me was how dated the room was. For a person with serious sinus issues, it was difficult to breathe due to how dusty it smelled. I suspect the culprit was the dated carpet. I stayed at another City Lodge and even though they still used the same decor, just removing that carpet and putting in floor boards made a world of difference. Please consider this!
