Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Amenities
The room was very basic (one chair, folding) and clean, but had a vaguely tank smell. Time to install a new carpet. The Breakfast Included was a surprise. The front desk attendant gives you a paper bag of crackers, Cheetos, orange drink, and a little yogurt cup). You can eat it in your room at the desk after unfolding the chair.
