Hot and dirty
The first room they had for us had a can of roach bomb on floor and smelled strongly second room had no air conditioning! The room was so dirty, stained sheets, dead roaches on the floor, poop stain on bathroom wall, hair clumps in the shower. The floors are nasty! The curtains had holes everywhere.

Needs remodeling
Though the location is great, the hotel is run down and in need of remodeling. We killed a couple of roaches in the bathroom. The food vending machine is extremely expensive! An individual pizza for $10.99 is outrageous!! Needless to say we just went down the street to Ralph’s an purchased food.

You get what you pay for. The price was amazing, but the room lacked soap and towels and had hair. There was also a power outage. If you are on an extreme budget, it’s an acceptable place to stay.
