Our room was disgusting. You could feel the dirt on your feet when walking in the room, our bathtub was full of mold. There was dust, dirt, grime and hair everywhere. The a/c buttons were broken & wall outlets were hanging from the lamp cords however the front desk staff were very friendly & it was a convenient location as we were staying to attend a concert @ garrison grounds. The location was also near lots of good food!

Hotel was good. Only complaints were that one of the sockets in the room didn't work so I had to move the microwave, the sink leaked a little when you turn the faucet on, and there’s no pigeon deterrents on the exterior of the A/C wall units so you can hear them land and coo at 4am

Nice staff, but disgusting accommodation. The painting of the Victorian girl on the 3rd floor was creepy. Seems like the building is haunted. Mould and mildew in the showers, toilets lol dented, towels had hair strands on them. Old fashioned loud air conditioner. Can hear all the creaking of the building as people walking around. Dirty old furniture. Horrible place. Will never stay there again. It was a mistake, I didn’t think it would be that horrendous.
