Overall terrible experience. Room lacked amenities. Sheets on the bed were (hopefully) clean but stained. Noise all night, from loud footsteps above to car alarms in the parking lot. The area is a demilitarized zone. Totally unsafe.

No food options, beds were like sleeping on metal springs with a bed sheet over it ... super ghetto, trashy . They charge you if you want to cancel to go elsewhere. My 2 cents don't don't waste your money HOT MESS HORRIBLE. You can never go inside lobby, everything done threw small side window 😡

The only problem was a very bright light right outside my window, and the curtains didn't keep out all the light. I liked the taco truck parked right outside on the road - good food, and very convenient.

You get what you pay for I guess. This was the cheapest listing on Expedia and I still feel like I over payed. The only good thing about this place was the large parking lot. Other than that it was dirty and sketchy
