Musty smelling hotel upon entering the front door all the way to the room. Uncomfortable beds. Dirty shower curtain. Noisy toilet when filling up after each flush. Very weak water pressure. Strobing bathroom lights. Rusty light fixtures. Ceiling stains. Non-caring front desk staff.

The breakfast was excellent. The floors were dirty, garbage receptical in front of entrance was overflowing at noon when we arrived and worse the next day, the bathroom door had been replaced with an ill fitting door with hinge recesses cobbled to work but very unprofessional and the elevator looked like it hadn't been cleaned in a week. Not good!

Everything was good for our stay except for the elevator being out of service. While it was simply a minor inconvenience for us - for an elderly group it would have been much more difficult.
