Don't get stuck in the elevators!

The hotel staff are wonderful and keep all areas spic and span. The provided breakfasts are tasty and well appointed. HOWEVER the hotel itself is bland and in bad repair. The USB and electric outlets were loose or nonfunctioning. Room lights flickered and went out. The elevators were broken and frequently got stuck between floor requiring us to call for help.
