The property is in need of investment. My room was not clean. The pillows were the least comfortable I can remember from any hotel stay. Stiff, lumpy, no variations. The couch was very uncomfortable, similar to a park bench. The windows were full of spider webs. The sound proofing was poor. Staff was poorly trained.
