Hotel is old and the shower leaked from the pocket light and then into the main room. Maintenance was frustrated and we were moved to a new room with two double beds. The shower handle fell off in this room. The place needs a huge makeover

Room was very clean. Shower did not have hot water after having maintenance come up to check it out. A little outdated but the room was clean and that’s what matters to me when I’m traveling. The front desk staff was very kind.
