The location was great with a fantastic view. The breakfast was pretty good (could have used a few more protein options). The room looked good when you walked in, but you could see that it was in need of a lot of TLC. The doors and trim were very beat up. The shower was really nice, but the shower head was not held in place and had over 4 inches of travel in and out of the wall. Made me worry the pip would break while adjusting the shower head. They were doing some maintenance in other rooms so I am hopeful they are doing the small updates and repairs to keep it beautiful.
