Brody, Jun 2020
Pros (+) Bed and AC both adequate.
Cons (-) Front desk person very rude. Upon entering the room, we noticed the bathroom was minimally cleaned- the shower had a sliver of bar soap remaining, and a half used bottle of shampoo. Urine stains on the wall behind toilet. Thin towels with yellow marks on them. Mold/mildew in shower. Will not be staying here again- especially at $157.
