Huge cockroach and droppings in the shower, front desk sent a custodian to kill it but didn’t offer a change of room or cleaning of shower. Very different experience than when I was there 2 years ago. Building and rooms are old and dingy, mold in bathrooms, etc. But they offer a nice buffet breakfast.
