"When I stayed here before, I had a wonderful stay. This was definitely not the same experience. I was awakened several times during the night by the traffic on the interstate. Also a hand rail (safety) in the bath tub would be very helpful. This was the first time I almost lost my balance. The tub area was also dated."
