We were given the room suitable for a disabled person. It was clean and spacious with ample room to maneuver a wheelchair. The bathroom appeared to be newly refurbished. The shower was excellent and had the necessary hand rails. There was a “barn door “ into the bathroom which opened and closed with ease. These comments are from a non disabled person.

The guy who rent the place is very friendly and helpful. You’re not here for the luxury. You’re at this place for the price and convenient location, walking distance to downtown. Easy to get back on the freeway. It’s a little beat up, but it’s affordable.
