"The reservation went through perfectly and checking in was easy. The room itself was okay for a short stay and served its purpose, but I did notice that the property is showing its age. There were a few minor maintenance issues that need attention. It is a reasonable and functional place to sleep, but a little extra maintenance would definitely improve the experience 🙂"
