Hotel is old. Cleaning is very surface level. Bathroom floor dirty in the corners, etc. crumbs on comforter on one bed and what appeared to be a dirty comforter on the other.
Only one younger lady running the show when we arrived. She was very polite and accommodating.
You get what you pay for. But I would not pay more than $60/night here. Regardless time of year.
