6/10 Good

I needed a room with 2 beds to stay 1 night while moving my college student in to an apartment. The price was okay and the location was excellent so we booked it. When I got into the room, the entry door had a hinge problem forcing the occupant to lift it up to fully close it. The tub/shower lever was also jammed so that both the tub spigot and the shower head were operating simultaneously. The cleaning of the room and bathroom was okay but not getting into the corners. Not my best stay at this property but I will give it another try on a future visit.
