Room was okay, the bathroom was awful there was mold all over the tub and the used some sort of mat to cover it up but the mold it growing outside of the mat now and the shower curtain and linens had rips/holes in them. Other than those issues the hotel was quiet and conveniently located next to shops and restaurants.

The room given to us had a leak in the bathroom, so we had to change to a different room. The desk clerk was very nice and helpful, but she had reported that issue to housekeeping 2 days ago. The rooms could use a good thorough cleaning.

There was a stench in the hallway that smelled like cat pee, which I know to be the padding underneath the carpeting. The room was not very clean.
