Very Poor
The staff were nice. That’s all I have to say about this place
The place did not match the price (non refundable) it demanded. The walls were dirty. Paint was peeling. The ceiling and mirrors had cracks! The bathroom was filthy with mold and random door pieces used to repair cracks. The bedding had burn holes and miscellaneous stains. The owner was also seen berating her staff in front of guests for posting helpful information about the festival happening in the city. I will NOT be returning!

The location is great and it would have been an awesome hotel if they renovate bathrooms and keep them clean
The owner is very rude and honestly didn’t care about the accommodations of the guest all she wants is the money
