This is the most bare-minimum hotel I have ever stayed in. Two beds, a table, a minifridge, a microwave, and a bathroom--it didn't even come with shampoos or tissues. With that said, it was very cheap and well-located. Surrounding area isn't well-lit at night

Parking lot was a little ehh, but front lobby wasn’t bad. There was a lady at the front desk, very nice and pretty. Okay, now the rooms are kinda weird to find, watch yourself on their stairs. Maybe if they add a rug to the stairs it wouldn’t feel like you are gonna slip or miss your step, and the hall I was on had a window boarded up, unmmm I didn’t like that but it wasn’t bad. Only one or two people hanging outside so it wasn’t trashy or anything. I only got the room to have a place to chill and get dressed before the CB 20 breezy bowl. I left at like 1am and didn’t see dude hanging out. Liked that. Bathroom was clean to my surprise like super clean white tub. Or weird colors or nothing.
