Hotel looks tired. Our bathroom was clean, but looked dingy and old. Carpet in hallway and elevator looked dirty and worn. Configuration of bathroom in our room was cramped. Breakfast was pretty limited. Service was fine, shower and mattress were fine.

If I could give zero stars I would! This was the worst hotel I have ever stayed in and I travel alot. The staff was incredibly rude and if that wasn’t enough the room smelt like cigarettes or wet towels or something. We woke up to ants covering everything including in our bed and as we got up to get out of thr disgusting room we looked on the side of the bed and there was throw up or something on the sheets…not from us! I’m horrified. I then asked for a refund and the front desk refused saying I needed to wait until the owner comes back from being out of the country. Do Not Go There!!!!!
