Nice hotel but could use an upgrade
"Front desk staff was great. Super helpful and accommodating. The lobby of the hotel is great but the rooms don’t really match that. They are pretty old and my biggest hangup was the cleaning. Stray hairs and left over soap in the bath tub tells me the cleaning was lacking."
