This is an older property but a nice hotel. I was surprised that they only had one luggage cart. Also there were no chairs in the room but the one at the desk. With all the technology we use today, there were very few plug-ins in the room except behind the tv stand & night stand. The bed was very comfortable & we had a good rest.
