The room was clean, But...There were no tissues, there was no cable, you has to hae a netflix account or open another account to watch anything, the tile in front of the toilet was loose, The BED was like trying to sleep on CONCRETE!!! The sign in front was in extreme bad condition I thought the place was closed, looked like the last time it had any attenion paid to it was 1980. ON the good side nobody broke into my car. Check in was fine the man was pleasent and efficiant. The property Needs work . $140 was 5 $50.00 Too much.

The front desk person was nice, the bed was clean but there was a very funky smell in the room and even though he very specifically told us there was no smoking in the rooms, someone had definitely smoked in there……but the worst part was that there was a recliner in the room with an ottoman that was so disgustingly dirty and stained that it made the whole room feel dirty

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.
