Tired and cramped with odd service

Despite being off season and empty no rooms were ready for an early check in at 2pm. Once in the room it was uniquely tiny so much so that you could not pull chair out far enough from the desk to sit on it! Bedroom was tired and wood veneer peeling in places. No parking which is detailed but worth noting!
