Building definitely shows its age, but it was clean and quiet and comfortable. Continental breakfast was lacking some basic options like fruit or yogurt. Close to many dining options.

The staff on overnight was sleep, there were bugs in the room and all my towels and washcloths smelled like mildew. There were no soap, shampoo or conditioner in the bathroom. When I asked the staff to get new ones in the morning, they said they don’t have any towels or washcloths that they could give and that they were out of the bathroom essentials I needed. Overall it was a terrible stay
