"Just about everything was great! There were a few things we didn’t use and a few parts of the place that looked a little outdated but it is still a very nice place to stay. The elevator looked torn up so it was a bit creepy. Mostly everything else was good though. Some areas smelled a bit. They may have some smoking rooms there which could have caused the smells. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The breakfast was actually pretty good and the parking was easy and pretty close."
