Our room itself seemed clean but you could tell the bathroom was mopped with a dirty mop as there was long dark hair in the shower and bathroom floor, neither my husband or myself have long dark hair. The breakfast was fine, but not anything great!

Liked: Cleanliness
The room has a heavy mildew smell and you could see water stains in the ceiling. The breakfast items were too slowly replenished with no urgency. The food itself was fine but needs more attention to keeping it full for your guests. The bed was also horrible! I am not that picky with beds but it killed my back. Heavy pot smoking around the rooms as well. The staff was actually wonderful.
