The beds are terrible, the mattresses are terrible, the curtains don't work and you can't close them, the walls are damp, and it looks bad, you open the window and what you see is a patio, with debris and things that don't work.

The room cost was low. The rooms need a LOT of upgrading. No tissues, toilet paper roll just sitting on counter. Bathroom drain had a lot of stuff stuck down in it…. Toothpaste cap, hair etc. Window shade didn’t work. WiFi didn’t work even with the correct user name and password. When I tried to call, phone didn’t work either. I would not recommend this facility.
