My room was smelly, seemed like someone had smoked in there. The bathroom was old, rusty and breaking down. The lights did not work and there was a broken switch board. There is a lot of renovation happening, and I'm sure the owners are looking to revamp the place. But there is still so much that can be done to fix up the rooms. I travel every week and I have written a lot of reviews for good and bad hotels. The bad ones are the ones where the owner does not care to do minor investments for the upkeep and will hire a cheap contractor or do it themselves. Simple things like caulking if done by a good professional can make a huge difference. Steam cleaning occasionally helps a lot, and cleaning up the windows, and so on and so on, I can go on and on with this.
