Got there and the room was dirty; the shower tub was horrible and disgusting, the bottom of the shower floor was very unsafe to get in and out, and there was rust on the bottom floor. The room itself was clean, except for walls and ceiling there were black marks on the walls ceiling, etc..that needed to be updated. Would not recommend staying here.

Get away trip
The stay was good. Mrs. Teri the front desk lady was very helpful and she helped us finding good restaurants that were open on a holiday. The room is is great. The light bulb in our bathroom did not work and the remote for the TV was not working properly. Where the room is located, it was close to an enter/exit door and the door was slamming all night long.

Dirty bathtub
The shower/tub combo was dirty. The shower head was crusted over with rust. The bottom of the tub was cracked and had rusty looking water in it. We did not use it.
