Although the staff was excellent. There's work to be done here. My first room smelled like urine and the other one smelled moldy. I walked to target to get a scented candle. I couldn’t hang my clothes in the closet any there was evidence of mold in the shower. The hotel had the nerve to text me about burning candles. It stinks in there. How dare you. The location is great. Also, they have no elevator so you have to climb stairs.

The property was easy to get to and check in and check out were very convenient and easy. It was slightly more dated than I was expecting and dirty in some areas (toothpaste residue on sink and sticky residue on bedside table). But overall a good experience
