No pool on property, shares with a hotel next door.. no coffee at breakfast they told us we could walk across the parking lot to other hotel if we wanted some. The furniture inside rooms was very damaged and old. Hallways reeked everyday of Marijuana. Evening staff has lots of attitude for simple questions.

We were on the second flour where the hall carpet was dirty. Our room was clean but we could hear the traffic and we were a long way from the elevator which makes it very inconvenient when you have trouble walking. For breakfast we were very disappointed to find no coffee made. Someone said the staff had advised them to go next door for some.
