Acceptable stay, some issues present

comfortable beduneven floorlifted areas
The staff was friendly and helpful. The bed was indeed comfortable.
The room seemed a bit dated. The bathroom floor had several areas that were lifted and may cause someone to trip. The floor in the entire room felt unlevel and the bathroom was at a complete slant.

the location was convenient with available parking.
i was given room seven on the second floor and it was not great. the bed was on a slant because the floor was uneven , made sleeping difficult. seagulls gathered right outside the window at 6 a.m., and the kitchen's exhaust vent was nearby making for a noisy and smelly experience.
