The hotel room we had was definitely dated. Dirty and worn carpet and curtains. Stained toilets and tubs. The TV did not work and when asked for assistance we were told “it’s because of the style of the TV it’s not a smart TV”. However, smart tv or not there should be sound. There were other rooms that were renovated but unfortunately we did not get one. The included breakfast was okay and the location ( proximity to places we wanted to go ) was nice. I wouldn’t return or recommend this hotel.
