We had a first floor suite. When we walked it the musty smell was overwhelming. There was a dehumidifier but it was full. We went to desk and they switched our room immediately. The room they moved us too was better but not great. There was milder musty odor and another full dehumidifier. We moved it to the hallway. The staff picked it up but did not replace it. Not a hotel for anyone with allergies or asthma. Will not stay here again
