Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
It was cheap. The front desk was nice upon arrival. Just there for the night on a quick stay but didnt feel safe. The outside needs a reno, cleaning and landscaping. Feels very run down. Inside was clean enough but the sheets/towels did not smell like bleach, there was a weird bug in the bathroom and the kitchen was not well stocked...or clean.
