"Decent stay, if you don't mind a few inconveniences and cosmetic issues. Walls are pretty nicked up and need some patching/painting, broken toilet seat, refrigerator made a high squealing noise (I unplugged it so I could sleep). Bed was very comfortable; no hooks in bathroom - couldn't hang a towel ..."
