The room is cheap but maybe i expected a little better for $89/night? We've had to have them reset breakers now twice, the tub drain doesn't hold water, the shower doesn't run water fully, the bed side wall does NOT work, at all. Their was cracker crumbs already on the bed When we arrived. Its 80 still outside...the AC BARLEY WORKS EITHER. The one window doesn't lock and wasn't on track right. Like I said its "cheap" but definitely a stop and go. 2 adults, 1 kiddo

Beds wasn’t clean there was hair on the pillows and the bedsheets have steins on them, the blankets have holes in them. I intended to book the two nights I was there, but I left and booked somewhere else that was worth the money.
