When I checked in I was enformed the elevator was broken and had been for about 2 weeks. I was placed on the 3rd floor with no assistance in getting all my luggage up several flights of stairs. The room was filthy and smelled of marijuana. The last 3 days of my stay the hot water was out and the hotel was not sure when it would be fixed. I would not recommend to stay at this hotel. Hopefully new management can come in to improve standards.
