Liked: Staff & service
There were some cleanliness issues that need to be cleared up. The building is obviously old but they seem to have done some renovations. There was some kind of mold build up in my shower drain, so I just skipped showering since it was just one night. The bedding was a little stained, so that was disappointing. And the furniture was also heavily stained. But over all, for the price I paid, it was as good as I expected. They so clearly clean the basic areas on a regular basis as there was no dust build up, the bed was perfectly made, and the floor was very clean. The staff was also very nice and accommodating.
The bedding seemed clean but this was either a stain or clearly not clean
