My main complaints are that the room was cold and I could not get the heater to work. I had to double the quilt on the bed to be warm. Also, the ran the water for a long time in the bathroom trying to get it hot enough for a shower. It only got to lukewarm I ended up taking a sponge bath because it really was not warm enough to take a shower. Also, the carpet in the hallway (at least on the 3rd floor) needs a really good cleaning or it should be replaced. The bed was very comfortable. And it was nice that breakfast starts at 5 a.m. I was on a road trip and it is nice to get an early start and not miss breakfast.
