The property is old and needs some updating. The bathroom shower was leaky, the light was missing its cover, and the tub was falling apart. The bed had cigarette burns all over the fleece blanket (even though we were in a non-smoking room) the curtains had paint on them, and there was nail polish all over the vanity. At one point we were asked to park across the street because the lot was full with other non-guests. As a paying customer I shouldn't be the one having to park somewhere else. This place would be nice if it was updated a bit and managed a little better.

I would have expected more with the price I paid for 2 nights. I requested for a non smoking room and there were burn holes in the mattress, sheets, and comforter. The room still looked dirty, there was still dirt on the floor and around the sink area and shower area. I paid for a queen bed room but got a full mattress in a queen bed frame.
