Property was in a great location and was decently priced. Staff was helpful and responsive to our request for more pillows (the room only had 2 when we walked in). We stayed overnight in January and had issues with temp. The room itself was warm but the bathroom still had the original windows. It was extremely drafty and at least 15 degrees colder in there than in the bedroom. We didn’t want to shower because of how frigid the bathroom was. Otherwise, location was decent and bed was comfortable.
