I overpaid for a very poor kept facility. The mattress was old and terrible. The pillows the same. The overpriced room should have included breakfast but that would have been an additional $60 plus for the four of us. The hotel has four floors and only one working elevator. 1 star and I wouldn't recommend staying there.

With only one working elevator, cleaning staff should vacate the elevator, when its full and guests need it instead of going to the floor they need.
