Don't stay here. The pictures look a lot better than it actually is. Its very run down and nosy. Its like living a getto or a third world country. The room is very dirty. There are burn marks on the bed spread, bathroom is disgusting. The whole place smells. Your car is not safe.

Terrible!
This place was the worst. Tweekers everywhere and all kinds of shady stuff going on, cars in and out all night. The rooms a/c didnt work and the place still had bits of trash on the floor. If it wasnt so late when i had arrived and the fact that i had already paid through the app., i would have never stayed there. Never will again, trust me...go someplace else
