Checked out the same day; unfortunately checked in and left to get something to eat. When we arrived 2 hours later and seen the room, it was so bad that we checked out immediately. We had to still pay for the room which was completely disappointing but at least we didn’t stay in a place that was dirty sheets and bugs not to mention not feeling safe!

Honestly the place looks like it hasn’t been cleaned in days . The place looks out dated . I got 2 rooms , the other room l got was for my parents. That room didn’t have any bath soap or shampoo. And it was missing 1 towel . The area is rough, homeless people hanging around the parking lot. I definitely would not go there again .
