The clerk was very helpful. The property needs some major TLC. It seemed there were an extreme amount of people that had taken up residence in the hotel. Although these people were not rude, they were hanging out near the front door, leaving me with a feeling of being an intruder.

There was a 11pm curfew for children… which is much too late. Now if the children were quiet maybe… but they were very loud. A/c worked great. After being outside in 90 degree heat all day it worked well cooling us down. Recommend bringing your own towels. It was affordable, and decent for the price I paid. I just wish they would keep the noose out of the hallway much sooner than 11pm.

OMG

The best part was the room was mostly clean. But it run down, noisy, bath room faucet needs repaired, but you can rent for the week for $350. NOT US. As we realized to late that it was Indy 500 weekend, We can see why it was last room in the area.

Dirty and roaches

The place is kind of sketchy pulling in. Going to the room, the floors were dirty all the way up the stairs. The room did not seem clean. There were no headboards, just platform beds. The sheets on one bed were dirty and the sheets on the other bed were do thin that I could see the stains on the mattress cover. Then I had to kill two roaches. I left. The best thing I can say is that all the employees were friendly and helpful and gave me a refund.
