"The facilities amenities offer as the whirlpool was out of order, dryer in laundry room is out of order and the bathroom toilet bowl loose with a foul sewer smell at times. The bathtub very slippery no lower hand-bars for people with disabilities or elderly. The room was nice and spacious but too much humidity in the room with some mold stain on the ceiling. No USB outlets and outlet for charging computer, phones and etc. The staff were friendly and helpful. Overall rate a 9 out of 10."
