The decor in the front lobby was a little outdated. You could tell that at some point, the hotel had been pretty nice, but it had gone down some. It wasn't "raggedy", but it most definitely was not a 4 star hotel anymore. The hallways kinda had an "old" kinda smell that the cleaning ladies tried to mask. The room itself was pretty cool. For the most part, it was just your average room, EXCEPT for the fact that it was a balcony room. The balcony added a few points for me.
