great location early check-in big room unusable shower stained walls ripped carpet

The location was great , near the stations. The room was large enough for what I needed. Checking in early was accommodated. This was a huge help for my schedule.

The shower was difficult to use. The water temperature fluctuated a lot. Stains marked the walls , which was not appealing. I noticed the carpet had rips in some spots , needing repair.
