I’ve stayed her for 25 years. New owner obviously. Bathtub full of dead bugs. Room floor filthy. Full ashtrays everywhere outside. Parking lot not swept and general detritus everywhere. Door did not seal room 11 to outside. Room full of bugs, some still alive. Whatever. I cant go back. The front desk lady was very nice. I did not complain because I was so tired from my day. Office is full of junk and crap. Used to be a real gem. I mean sapphire.
