The room had caulking that looked like it was old or just badly done. The side of the cabinet at the bottom looked like the paint was coming off. The eggs tasted bad.

The walls here are paper-thin; we could hear EVERYTHING in the rooms next to us. It was awful. We could not sleep due to all the noise and left in the middle of the night. I would not recommend. The room was clean only bright side.

The room itself was great, clean and comfy! Unfortunately whoever stays in room 236 above 125, sounded like a loose dog was trying to escape all night. Constant dropping and stomping of things didn’t allow any of us to get much sleep.

The lady at the front desk was super sweet! Although were given the wrong room, she fixed and even called us after check to make sure we were happy. Definitely good customer service on her part. There was no breakfast served, that falls on the owners.
