Good stay

Place was clean but needs some updating. Both showers had some issues. One tub had issues draining and the other shower’s hot/cold knob completely fell off. Beds were comfortable and place was spacious which we liked. Drapes could be a bit better for privacy purposes. Neigjborhood was okay not the greatest.
