1. The room also smelled very musty given the NO humidity.

2. The first night, there was a very musty smell in the room and the A/C also did not work well --it was either freezing, or off and roasting.

3. The business office worked with me to find a great meeting room, the front desk was very helpful on several fronts - from helping me find places to eat, to switching my room quickly (the first one smelled like smoke), to bringing supplies up to our meeting room, they were fantastic.

7. The location of this place is good, not much service and the thing I dislike the most is the smell in the hallway, don't know if it's because of the old carpet, but it smells like someone throw up, so all in all if you can get it cheap then it's okay otherwise I will go somewhere else.
