Overall stay was okay. The lady who checked me in was really nice. But our room was a little dirty, bathroom doorknob was broken, stains on blankets/pillows, loose hair on bedding and the room had an old smell to it.

The facility has just been renovated. New beds, new HBAC unit, working internet, Roku video streaming available and fresh paint. However, coming from a tour trip on the 2nd, the door keys did not work. I have to call and wait for service.
