Cockroaches running around, cracks in walls and ceiling and TV service only partially worked. Could not watch ANY local of the NETWORK channels. Owner came in and when I asked for another room he told me to get my stuff and leave. Place is a rat hole.

The place is full of homeless, they broke into a truck and Managemnt doesn’t speak English. They did not supply any support. The staff is very disrespectful, cursing at my children to “shut up” and making racial slurs. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE. STAY AWAY FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY
