Aging Gracefully
The property is older and it does show. Guests say the rooms look outdated and some updates are necessary. In addition, many guests would appreciate the addition of a bathroom fan.
negative:
Air Conditioner
Though most guests didn't have problems, several thought the air conditioner in their room wasn't working well enough, especially on hot days. The A/C units are an older model and aren't very strong. They are also quite noisy, so bring a pair of earplugs if you plan on sleeping with it on.
