Very good property - well managed. Breakfast was excellent first day but not so good second day. The staff person working in the Kitchen may be better off looking after the kitchen than talking to her countymen while breakfast is being served.

Bathroom had hair mopped in the corners of the floor and in the shower, sheer curtains were quite dirty with what appeared to be clumps of boogers on them. Standing water in the swale outside the window was blue green in color.

There was an odd smell in the main lobby, and on the first night it smelt like someone was smoking weed. Other than that, the staff was very friendly. We did see what seemed like a couple homeless people coming in and out of the hotel during breakfast. Not sure what that was about.

Bathroom sink was terribly clogged. Coffee was awful. It tasted like dishwater and I could not drink it. The only good thing about breakfast was the waffles which you could make yourself and were hot. The sausages snd the biscuits were cold. Eggs were warm. Overall bad breakfast. Check in staff was friendly. Room did not feel very clean especially after the clogged sink. Bathtub was rusty .
