There was a dog barking in the room next to mine so I asked to change rooms and got a much quieter room, and slept very well. The area is a little sketchy but I’m familiar with dealing with these things and didn’t have any problems.

This place left a lot to be desired. The rooms smelled. There was hair everywhere. Gum in the paper cups. There was riff raff staying there, and it wasn't the quietest. Spend a little more and stay somewhere else.
