We booked this last minute because it was close to the wedding we were going to. The staff was very nice and attentive but our room reeked of smoke and there were stains all over the carpet. We’re also pretty sure we saw a ghost. I wouldn’t stay here again.

Perfectly Fine.

It’s pricey for an ancient, outdated place but it’s clean, the AC is freezing cold and the showers are hot. The bed was comfortable, it worked well for one night.
