It was a decent hotel. The staff was great. There was a bad smell in the room, like a sewer smell. The room was overall decent but definitely needs some updates and a paint job or good cleaning. Comfy bed

It was clean, but the soap holder in the shower was nasty. As to amenities, no coffee in the room and the lack of electrical plugs in by center stand for the phones to be charged. Had to find one by the tv. The staff were excellent.
