The carpet is plain and simple filthy - just outrageously filthy. Please change it!! Old property - needs TLC pretty much all over. The garage parking is a challenge - no elevator on one side thus have to drag ALL your luggage.

Room smelled really bad like mildew. We had to open the patio door to freshen up the room. I did let front desk know but all I got was a sorry but no accommodation. The room was pretty run down for the cost of the nightly stay. There is no microwave in the room and only one communal microwave in the lobby. Also, you have to pay $30 a night for unsecured parking. Horrible stay overall.
