Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort

Wouldn't stay again.

The room was on the second floor and the steps up were a weird height. Made stumbling easy. The front window curtains were only attached to the rod in a couple of places keeping the curtain from closing completely. The bathroom door was so tight that it was almost impossible to close and if you did it was very hard to get open. The tub had mold around the bottom of the tiles. The two beds were very different/ one was quite hard and the other was very soft. My wife and I have sleep issues and need to sleep in separate beds. We both like firm beds,so one of us had to suffer. On the other hand, the front desk person was very friendly and helpful when we checked in and the room was essentially clean.
