In need of some much needed updates. Looks the same as to when I was in college 20 years ago and smells that old too. Ceiling tiles missing in pool area, rust stains on ceiling and several areas in pool area. Carpet in hallways stained and rippling from age. Tv stand and other furniture in room showing age and wear.

The room was in need of repairs/maintenance - looked like bandaid maintenance. You could tell it was an older building. The staff were great, very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was very limited and did not offer anything that was healthy ie: eggs/Protein. Kids loved the pool area and had a blast.

Rooms are less than desirable. Dirty and out dated. One of the beds in the room was broken. Blankets all had holes in them. Definitely need updating and cleaning. The pool area was super dirty also. Staff was friendly.
