“Staying at this hotel seems to be a gamble based on room allocation. While the staff's helpfulness is consistently noted, the potential for noise disturbances, especially in basement rooms, appears to significantly impact the experience. The condition of the rooms themselves-broken fixtures, insecure doors, and water damage-suggests that a restful stay might be more hope than expectation.”
