"Hotel needs upkeep/updating."

Overall Score3.0/ 5

One of the two elevators was broken, which made it take longer to get an elevator and then it was crowded or you had to ride it up before you could get down again. The rugs in hallways and our room needed major cleaning/replacement. Bathroom tub needs to be recaulked as it appeared moldy and dirty. On a good note the staff was friendly and helpful.
