Charged me $71 for the room then $100 deposit when I got there, that still hasn’t been returned even after I called about it and they said they started the refund process. Bathroom had not been cleaned, hair all over, plus only one towel.

The location was centrally located for the events we were to attend. The acess to the RObert groceery staore and hot deli was great fopr qjuick delicious breakfasts, I think a rolling "coat" rack to be able to hang up certain articles aof clothing would be helpful. A mirror in the bathroom, and more hooks/racks for towels would be nice., throw away beverage /water glasses would be nice for tooth brushing. The floor in the bathroom needs to be reenforced . Overall it satified our needs and use,
