Would not recommend

There were straw papers and crumbs in the hallway when we arrived. The sheets had stains that appeared to be black mold. There was so much water damage to the bottom of the bathroom door the grey paint had peeled off all the way across. The beds were miserably hard. We arrived very late and moved hotels the next day.
