They can do better for 80 bucks a night.

The bed was broken. Slept in a leaning mattress. They had renovations for the bathroom, but clearly the front desk is also the cleaning staff. Being near the casino, I'm sure they make enough money to inspect these rooms.

Clean but old and tired looking.

Property is tired. The room was clean, and had been updated a bit. Everything worked (microwave, refrigerator, A/C, etc.), but there were also loose doorknobs, squeaky hinges, etc.

Check in was through a little hole in the glass- couldn’t hear the lady very well and she didn’t speak clear English; plus tried to charge me more , so I had to show her my reservation email. Not a nice facility and could use a good cleaning.
