The shower didn't work for starters. Safety is not a priority here. The window didn't lock and the wooden bar in the track was too short to do anything so anyone could have opened the window from outside. The lock is a simple key lock, so i had chairs shoved against it to wedge it closed to feel a little safer. It's alos very loud, the walls are super thin so i heard everything outside including the street light signaling when to walk.

You could easily find something healthy to eat. We had cereal and yogurt. The parking lot was dominated by large trucks - tough to find a safe spot. The rooms were small but clean and looked like it had been given a recent facelift. The exterior of the building needs cleaning up - a little shabby looking. The price as about right though.
