Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The Rooms were filthy, the first room had no air that worked, and the drapes were hanging off the window. Then they put us on the first floor, which, by the way, to let you know, the elevator did not work . The second room had no light bulbs and was filthy, plus we had to pay an extra $20.00 in cash as a security deposit
This was the air conditioning
The bed and dirty head board and only pillows for one
The light fixture
the vent in bath room

It was so ghetto, The hallways smelled like weed and it was dirty. The room wasn’t that bad but the whole bathroom was d.i.y when you turned the sink on the whole floor starts flooding, the shower head was leaking, the toilet needed to manually drain from the tank, and the door doesn’t stay closed. We also asked in advance if someone would be at the desk early in the morning and they told us yes but when we got there we waited for over 20 minutes so we just left. (it was 5:00am) I still want my $20 deposit back. Would not recommend this place to my worst enemy.
