The facility is under new ownership and hopefully will improve. We prepaid through via a third party but was billed again on top of what we had already paid. The advertised exercise room was made into a conference room. Advertised television channels were not all available. After a call to the desk and a trip down to the desk, someone came to let us know those stations were no longer available.

TV didn’t work & we followed all the instructions but it was too after midnight when we checked in we didn’t want to call & ask for assistance. It took me calling the front desk for someone to check us in to hotel. The bathtub was slippery, need something to help with traction to prevent falling. The facility was clean and there is a microwave & little refrigerator and extra sink outside bathroom which is always a plus!

The property is older but updated. The only issue I had was that the sink had very low water pressure, the shower was fine so I think it was the faucet.
