Not for sissies, folks. It’s a bed and a toilet—no closet, no drawers, no lamp and no chair. Keep one eye on your vehicle. It’s the cheapest stay and the all around WORST.

The bed has stains and the room smells. Not even worth it . Don’t get fooled by the higher rating like me. Even though I paid for the room, I slept in my car itself.

The the price, I got a great nights sleep. Air conditioning was cold. Hot water lasted long, white sheets felt clean. If you look past the condition of the place and focus on the needs of the night. For the price this was amazing. Hot shower, and cold air conditioning was my favorite part. Also parking is right in front door which is great. No fee at all. A great stay for the night.

It was really dirty. The floor was so dirty that my feet turned black at the bottom & I just got out the shower… on top of tht the microwave was broken I almost blew up the whole room trying to warm something up. Because he FAILED to mention not to use the microwave The bathroom door was unable to close. Shower floor was so dirty I didn’t even want to step into it without shoes… there was someone’s leftovers in the fridge.. staying there was weird as well had someone watching our every move 24/7 for NO reason.
