Overall Stay Was Ok

We were placed in a 'handicapped' room. After a shower in the shower stall (with a flimsy shower curtain), water flowed on to the bathroom floor and into the room! The night associate came up with a mop & bucket. After realizing we were in a handicap room (which I did not request), we were moved to a room, that had a bathroom with a shower door. Also, we were very disappointed that there was no closet, dresser, clock, and only one chair, no art work on the walls, it seems we were in a box! Not a very comfortable atmosphere. Overall the staff was helpful & informative, and the lobby and breakfast were good.
