Good, if you are here to visit the owner.

The only good thing about the place is you can what you need by a quick request from the front. However, the place is not clean at all. The chairs were super dirty, there was some trash on rooms corner. The smoke detector was missing. The smoke free room had burned bed sheet with sigaret. Everything inside was old.

Two words: Flea + Bag

Do not believe the room photo, mine was shabby, unclean and reeked of mold. I had to ask for a new blanked because mine was covered with cigarette burns, unidentifiable stains, and bad smells. At 1am the people in the next room were screaming at the top of their lungs for over an hour and I worried about a bullet coming through the wall. I did not feel safe or healthy staying there and should have left in the middle of the night.

Price + location = amazing

The location and price is what made me rate it so high. Plus I came late and check in was quick. No deposit. Big bed. Lots of room. Small place, maybe 20 rooms. Quiet and basic
