This room was not very comfortable for us. The bedspread had holes in it. The pillow cases had stains on them. The bed was on some kind of metal base and every time we rolled over it made an awful noise. The air conditioner cooled the room but was very loud. The building is dated and it shows. We got up and just left without using the shower but the towels looked awful.

Very unkept as far as maintenance and cleanliness in my room. Light fixture in the room was non functioning and partially disassembled. Window had a lounge with significant stains. Hair on the pillow case. Strange odor in the room. Overall, had I been with my family and not alone needing a simple room to sleep overnight for a few hours, I would have never stayed in the room.

I'll be as generous as I can without sounding too critical. But, the hotel was extremely outdated, run down and poorly maintained and staffed. I couldn't tell which rooms or floors were smoking or non-smoking, as everything seemed intermingled. The hallways stank of cigarette smoke, and our room smelled of weed each night, like it was being smoked directly beneath us. The front desk clerk would have been more at home working at Guitar Center, but was friendly and knowledgeable enough. The location was very nice, as that whole area of town is beautiful with a lot to do. Great shops, restaurants and of course the Zoo and Botanical Gardens. We survived, but wouldn't recommend it.
