Noisy, rooms were not that clean, pictures of the rooms online were taken when hotel was brand new, rooms do not look like that now. Hotel experiences electric issues. Electric in bathroom didn't work. Floors and walls were dirty. People live in these hotels so it's not the best place to stay.

The gal that check us un was hugh on some type of upper/speed. Our room was pretty clean, but the floors could have been done better. The tile needed swept. I'm guessing from whatever the vacuum missed. I will say, I've never seen a hotel offer a kitchen but not have a single item stocked in it (no silverware, dish, pan anything).
