good for an adventure if you don’t have allergies

I had to book another hotel because of trash and dust under bed and excessive dog hair on carpet (not from us!) The room could’ve been nice had it been cleaned/ at least vacuumed! It had a charm, albeit an old school charm. It was spacious. The front desk offered to reduce a charge but no room accommodation that matched our “premium” price and booking agreement was offered or granted. There’s an issue with what we booked and what we got. The people in the area/-some in same hotels, some in other hotels— the neighbors were very helpful, which I thought was sweet The neighbors helped us when hotel staff could not In any case, we left for another hotel that night: a huge inconvenience

The staff was very friendly. We knew going in the hotel was older. The furniture was very well 'loved'. It needed a major upgrade/renovation. The outside needed some serious repairs. The cleanliness of the room was fine. We got in late and left early, so only needing a fews hrs to sleep, it was fine.

First we booked because the property said it was pet friendly. Upon arriving they said they were not. They would accommodate us but would have to change our room. We didn’t realize we were being changed from king room with sofa to double bed with barely enough room for wife’s walker. There were bar’s in toilet area but the one on the side wall was so far away it was of no use. At 1 am the toilet started running water and there was no way to get it to stop so we finally had to turn its water supply off. This property’s description on internet needs truthfully postings as to condition and amenities.

Conveniently located. The room was spacious and comfortable. Some signs of wear and tear on the outside, but a good place to stay. Our TV would not work properly, in spite of a delayed visit by the maintenance person.
