The room had an odor to it like a musty mildew, but I knew it wasn’t mildew. Just a very strange odor. Other than that everything was just fine.

Overall very loud

Very loud neighbors and when we told the front desk, they seemed to be aware of it but not make effort to fix the situation. Above us we have construction workers who were drinking and out late on the balcony and then would be up around 6 and could hear each step and noise they made. You can hear cars passing by and cars being locked. No noise buffer

Room 206. Like: Property had a good structure, well lay out and airy. Plus with the recent remodeling the full room that elevated the room quality significantly. Room was spacy. Bed was comfortable. Dislike: Bed base was a sheet metal wrap around that make noise and echo noise when my feet hitting the frame. Note sure why the facility chose this material that might cause pain if guest hit it harder. Bed sheets were older and had existing stain. Bath towels were mixed of old and new. Continental breakfast had one waffle maker that takes 2.5 min. Guests lined up in queue. Adding a second maker might be best. Coffee quality could be better. Overall, I would like to grade 4.5 star for the experience.
