“I noted that the large rooms and proximity to the historic district do have appeal; it's a shame there appear to be frequent issues with basic services and cleanliness. Reports of missing amenities and lack of maintenance are concerning, and would certainly make me think twice about booking a stay. These issues outweigh the benefits of the location.”
