Stayed for two nights. Decent hotel. Beds were comfortable. Hotel could use a deep cleaning. I don’t usually look under beds but this time my glasses fell behind the bed and as I was looking for them in noticed layers of dust and cow webs it was nasty with layers of dust. Kind of made me a little uncomfortable but other than that it was ok.
