It was a decent stay. They were slow to provide room service. We had to ask multiple times for them to finally do it. The walls are also pretty thin so keep that in mind. The location was pretty good as well

Worn out carpets, uncomfortable bed, poor food, abrupt staff. This hotel needs a change of ownership and management to restore it to the hotel I remember from twenty years ago.
