Pros:

Friendly staff everywhere

Cons:

The door to the outside by RM 107 was not secure and anyone could walk right into the building from that end.

I would stay again, but bring a room deodorizer. The whole place needs one.
Pros:

It was comfortable and the staff was nice

Cons:

It smelled like BO through out the whole place. Not moldy, but like stanky under arm.

Wasn’t bad but could improve
Pros:

It was clean. Staff was friendly.

Cons:

Towels are terrible. Water pressure sucks. For the price you pay per night, you would expect nicer things.
