"Modern" Indeed
Difficult to find, no sign, appears to be a residence. Difficult check-in procedure and unprofessional service. Grimy and dirty. Rude patrons playing audio and being loud late because there are no rules. Many other patrons are clearly living there rather than traveling. Smoke detector chirps every minute or so. Woke to the sound of a rooster.

Perdí mi dinero llewmgue tarde en la noche y no tenían cama después que me cobraron y luego la cama que me dieron esa noche el que supuestamente pago por ella apareció y me brinco encima por su cama. No pude dormir todo sucio y apestoso. Solicitó un reembolso de dinero porque no voy a reservar más con ustedes.
