8. Our room was in the basement, and didn`t smell musty at all, no, not one little bit, instead it smelt a bit like a dentist surgery.

9. Even though we payed extra ($249/ night before taxes) for a `premium` room, our room was a dark, musty smelling room in the basement with no windows to the outside.

10. Only complaint was the musty smell of the stairs and basement hallway- avoid the basement if you can, but don`t turn it down if it`s your only option.
