The receptionist at front desk was nice. Looks like the sheets were not even changed out. The shower stall needs a major upgrade, does not look clean, has yellow stains, I even showered with my sandals on, the shower curtain is about to fall apart, it is literally just hanging on by threads. Not to mention the roach we found!
