The people who were staffing this hotel were very nice. The physical state of the hotel is pretty run-down, though. There is plenty to suggest that management doesn't care, can't afford improvements, or both. The exterior of the building looks unwelcoming; everything except the lobby needed a coat of paint.several years ago.The rack for the handle on the shower hose had been replaced (in a ramshackle way) with a coat rack that just barely stayed into the wall. The chair in my room had become loose and creaky to a dangerous degree. The front desk staff addressed that promptly when I brought it up, but I had a persistent feeling that no one is looking around or looking ahead to problems.
This is all too bad, because I'd like the place to succeed. The price can't be beat; it's very inexpensive. It's a bit of a walk to the centre of town, but it's a nice enough walk at that. I hope they can patch things up.
