The hotel room was dirty and scruffy. There was a layer of grime on the inside of the front entrance foyer. The manager who checked me in wore a ball cap that was filthy and unwashed. Not the first thing one wants to see when checking in.

The property is in a safe area and provides cleaning on a daily basis. Besides the no visiting rule that I feel gets ignored, I have no complaints.
