The power went off several times during our stay and we couldn’t turn lights on in our room or restroom. There were stains on the headboard. Ripped carpet in a few places. It was nice to have a kitchen area to use for breakfasts. Parking was easy. Nice location for walking distance to grocery store and downtown.
