Sleep area was just ok (one bed squeaked), no printed tv guide and tv navigation was difficult, very bare bones furnishings. The bathroom had one upgrade from the 1980’s…the toilet. All other fixtures/shower enclosure were antique and the handle on vanity faucet spun around. The floor was disgusting with black mold along wall and in corners. I booked online for $140/night taxes. Expedia should re-evaluate this place.

I expected a higher quality building. Towels were of very poor quality, old, thin, fit for cleaning not to be used for personal use. The faucet on the bathroom sink was loosely attached and giggled when turning on and off.Base boards in bathroom needed a good scrubbing and bathroom fan make a loud grinding noise to be avoided. The people at the front desk were very nice.

Pros: Clean room, clean bed, easy parking, elevator access, hot water, and quick friendly check in and check out. Cons: Dirty hallways, smelled like smoke and mildew, overflowing trash bins, bed was a nod hard, and continental breakfast was just bread, cereal, and not so good looking eggs. Overall the rooms are great but the common areas are not well taken care of. Good for just a shower and sleep.
