Ok if on a budget and need dog friendly.

Extremely dated kitchen and furniture, downstairs bathroom you could not close the door with out hitting knees if you were sitting on the toilet (I’m only 5’8”) carpet had holes in it going up the steps. Downstairs subfloor needs work as there are a few uneven areas.

The bed was very firm and the pillows were flat and hard. Sounded like a lot of foot stomping all hours of day and night. Not sure if it was maintenance in back hallway or people in room above us. Love the location, room was clean and staff was exceptional.
