I took pictures of our room because it was terrible! The walls and floors were really gross. No drain plug in both sink and tub. There was mildew all by the tub, the blow dryer didn’t work, it almost shocked me, and sound like rocks were in the fan. The entire room just smelled bad for our 2 night stay. I will never stay there again!
