Not clean. Did not sleep under covers, bathroom floor was dirty, sink stopper did not work and could not retract once pushed in. Toilet seat was broken off and had something on it. Bed was hard. Room was not like pictures at all. Seemed like a haven for tweaked, weekly rate stayers and day laborers. Wasps all around outside.

Staff was friendly but hard to understand. The room was very clean and well stocked. Only real complaint was that the bathroom was very dated and there didn’t seem to be cold water, only warm/hot.

did I pay twice?

I thought I had paid for the room online, but when I arrived, the owner said I had only reserved the room. I paid him for the night and am hoping I didn't pay twice.

This place is more focused on maybe a single man. Place is a little scary. Rooms are very small. Beds r uncomfortable. If your just looking for a cheap place to lay your head so your not on the streets. This would be for you.

Its off the beaten path much closer to the downtown area and the childrens playgrounds, but worth it. The room is simply equipped with the microwave, coff maker and frig. Its clean, quiet and i did not notice neighbors or cars outside. Slept well. Hotel offers a breakfast of cereal, coffee and juice. Nice place. I will stay again.

Facility is in dire need of updates, remodeling, and general maintenance. Loud pattern polyester bed spreads are a relic of the past. Cigarette burns all over what is supposed to be a non smoking room sends a message that lots of smoking has occurred. So does the rancid smell.

Lowest price for a night

Gentleman at checkin was nice. Hotel is dated, looks like they are slowly upgrading. We just needed a room for the night so fit our bill. Rooms are large, coffee maker, fridge and microwave in room. The pool looked nice on a hot day. Bed comfortable, room clean.
