This is a homeless shelter. The rooms are in very bad condition to say the least. Nothing like the photos online. Every single room reeks of cigs and weed. If all rooms have a dense cigarette smell then calling the property smoke free is a lie. I have been lied to... Disappointed.

This property was extremely dirty. We arrived and were given a room next to multiple individuals who were outside smoking and drinking. Our door did not lock, and out bathroom door did not even fit in the frame. It did not feel like a safe environment. We immediately left and had to find other sleeping arrangements.
