Needs an elevator

The entire hotel has stairs - to reception, to bar, to rooms, parking had the listing stated boldly no elevator we would have stayed elsewhere—staff is wonderful, hotel is clean, no wash cloths or hand towel in bathroom only 2 bath towels and we booked a king room and got 2 twin beds— not great for a 25th wedding anniversary trip
