No ice machine. No coffee pot in room. Very small and rough bath towels. Funky smell in room. Tub clogs when taking a shower. Very small tv. Sheets and comforter didn’t look very clean- had stains. Air conditioner worked. Won’t stay here again. Had free WiFi. Coffee provided in lobby. Pillows too small. Heard people upstairs during the night.
