I would not recommend staying here it was sketchy. There was little to no amenities and I mean not even shampoo in the bathroom. The door locks on almost every door were broken from being kicked in. It was very insecure. Legitimately this is a $45 a night room.

Room was small but very adequate. Bathroom was very clean. Bedding was clean but had a few small tears. The property overall seemed dated/tired but clean. Front desk staff was excellent. Very helpful.

80% of towels/washrags were stained or had other peoples hair on them. Wood flooring is paper thin, people above were stomping and running around and it amplified and resonated into the room. Could hear the folks in the adjacent room all night talking and laughing, they weren't yelling or being excessively loud. Again, every sound was just amplified. The security latch/bar was barely attached and the door looked like someone had previously tried breaking in. There was an used bar of soap placed on top of the shower from a prior resident that was there when I arrived. Overall ratings I gave were probably generous.
