underwhelming stay, some issues observed
adequate roomunkempt hallwaysrun-down vibe
the room size was adequate for my needs. that was acceptable.
I found the cleanliness lacking. the hallways upstairs looked rather unkempt to me. the family room felt cramped and it lacked proper storage. It definitely was not suitable for a family. the whole place gave off a very run-down vibe, and it showed its age.
