Room didn't seem very clean, headboard had red splatters, room smelled like weed, coffeemaker was dirty looking, and worst part was my booking was nonrefundable and my work got delayed so there was no refund in any portion for only using 2/5 nights. Happy donation I guess. Not impressed with the whole situation, will not return, and do not recommend but that's just my opinion.
