Decent room but terrible internet

I was pleased at first as this place felt a little larger than the last place. The vanity area was large enough to spread toiletries out. The internet service was essentially non existent. The three lamps in the room all had outlets. None of them worked. The only working outlet was right next to the sink. A breaker must have tripped as the lights went out over the sink.

Room was okay. Could have been cleaned better. Bedding was subpar - mattress was absolutely uncomfortable. Patch work was done but not completed on a portion of the wall, screws in random places to “secure” the door frame. Shower head leaked and had built up calcium.

It was a very nice room, quiet & conveniently right off the freeway! My bed felt like I was floating on a cloud! The breakfast wasn't anything to write home about, but overall it was good!
