The room was clean and the beds comfortable. Surrounding were dated but looks like they are trying to improve. Staff was nice and helpful.

The beds were good and the AC was cold. But the mat of dust on the TV, the hair in the shower and the cockroach INFESTATION was hard to get over. We stopped killing cockroaches after about the 15th kill. The breakfast was Little Debbie donuts and rancid OJ. I didn’t have the heart to try the apple juice. It’s a cool property with SO much historical potential. It’s just being neglected.
