The curtain was broken so I couldn’t close it all the way for privacy. The room was outdated and old. I don’t think the quality was worth the price.

The parking had large pot holes, the "garden" had not been tended to, all things were dead. The rooms smelt stale. The AC unit ran constantly, it never shut off. There were no towels for the pool. There was no syrup for the pancakes-waffle breakfast

I liked having the indoor pool but some kids had somewhat “trashed” the room. The breakfast left a lot to be desired. There was a nice waffle maker and donut maker but no pancake/ maple syrup. We were told to use jelly?

Room was clean but was obviously damp, with a musty smell, that could be consistent with unseen mold. Needs to be dried out. I have a feeling the area of the hotel is not always open, but not really certain about this.
