Not Great but Not Terrible

The hotel location was favorable and the staff friendly and helpful. Our only complaint would be the "smell" of the room. Upon check-in, it was late so we didnt bother requesting a change, and also thinking the smell was residual from someone cooking in or near our room. However, the unusual odor never went away for the duration of our stay, and I had to spray room down with Lysol every night, which only temporarily masked the odor. We soon found out, the smell in question was housekeeping's cleaning items they used. We may consider other hotel options in the future.
