Television worked first night but next day wouldn’t turn on. Left messages on phone and in person at front office but tv still wasn’t fixed before we checked out. Also window was quite dirty. Breakfast was minimal. Overall the place is okay for the price and I would probably stay here again.

The property was old rundown in desperate need of updates. The walkways were unkept, cans filled with cigarette butts and alcohol bottles left laying around. Outside light shining directly into the windows all night long as the curtains were not black out. It was noisy when people walked around in the room and walk way above our room. The bed was okay. The water pressure in the shower was fantastic but the tub is definitely needing to be replaced and the tiles grouting repaired. We did not take advantage of the free breakfast as the area was cramped and not welcoming

Asked "booked on line" I reply yes and a key was given to me very coldly."here" was all she said. Room stuffed in corridor with flimsy key knob but dead bolt worked. I didn't feel really safe in the outside hallway area and run down look Multiple families living in building. Won't stay again.
