Room in bad need of refurbishing. Dirt and mold. Stains in carpet. Worn furniture. Small toilet a joke. Sloppy finished plumbing. Low battery in thermostat. Lot of insects. Exterior needs clean up/paint. Just overall grungy.

room smelt weird , chairs had rips and stains , my wash rag had hair that wasn’t mines . Bathrooms were moldy very out to date . 1 elevator which was very inconvenient for people staying with kids or with a lot of luggage . Staying at a motel 6 probably would’ve been better. I’ve stayed at holiday inns and had wonderful experiences this might’ve been this worst facility
