It was relatively quiet but the physical condition of the room was terrible. The furniture was very old and worn out and should have been replaced years ago. Wall repair and paint absolutely required. Also, roaches in the bathroom was a nice touch. If you have no choice for something else, fine. It's better than sleeping in your car.

The hotel owner turned off the power source to our air conditioning unit when it was 90°F outside. Refused to turn the power to it back on and would not place us in a different room. There were no fans offered and no opening windows. The hotel left it like this for four days until we could make other accommodations. My young son ended up in the emergency room from heat exposure due to the hotel's neglect to us, their guests.
