The carpet is worn and really lumpy causing tripping hazards and making it hard to roll a bag. For the first time in many stays, we had to wait til exactly 4 p.m. to check in because housekeeping didn't have rooms ready. The location is very convenient for visiting family in the area, but the price is getting to be a but much foe the actual quality of the hotel. Needs some updating.
