Decent Stay with Some Issues

central locationfriendly staffhelpful servicebasement roomworn floorboardsbathroom mold
The location was really great for exploring the area. It was super central and close to everything. The staff were nice and friendly, which I appreciated. They seemed very helpful with directions.
My room was in the basement and needed a bit of work. I spotted stains on the walls and the floorboards were quite worn. The bathroom had some mold. It was not ideal.
