Decent hotel, but not the greatest. Elevator was very sketchy. Room was decent, but there were scrapes on the walls, no fan in the bathroom, and white bed sheets had minor stains.

While I appreciated the walk in shower, i hated the fixtures as there was no way you could get water temperature correct without getting fully wet... with COLD water. Also, bed was extremely high and i almost needed a stool of some sort to get in at night. Just slide right out in the am!
