The outside appearance and walking into to lobby made me nervous. Very old and dirty. The gentleman who checked me was super nice. My room was actually very nice and clean. Outside property needs some work. Building is old and worn. Time for some paint and weed eater. But room was nice

Not great!

My door wouldn’t deadbolt, even after today’s “repair”. Tub so nasty I was grossed out to shower in it. Room phones not plugged as they do not work to be able to contact the front desk. Good sized apartment sized fridge with freezer was great. Charging outlets broken or not working. Laundry $2 to wash and $2 to dry with quarters but no coin machine and front desk doesn’t have quarters. Thank God for kind people checking in to help with quarters!
