The property was in terrible condition. The grounds were filthy and covered in graffiti, the water wasn’t running, and the pool was closed. The surrounding area felt unsafe, with loud neighbors making noise all night, and it was clearly in a rough neighborhood. Overall, it was an unpleasant and uncomfortable experience.

This place could be over the top. Awesome! Just not enough pride by the employees order. Maybe they're short staffed but you can tell they need deep cleaning

Hotel or Halfway House

Place was disgusting. It’s not in a good area and there were crackheads that were being loud in surrounding rooms. The door looked like it had been kicked in several times. There were crumbs and other things on the floor and we were concerned for our safety. We left immediately and so I will be requesting a refund. There was a smell of crack and marijuana. avoid!!!!!!!

Disappointed, definitely not a suite I expected.

The floor of the room was filthy. The tub rusty and in poor condition. The hot water at the tub runs continuously. The pool is broken and the deck around the pool and stairs to the second floor filthy. The furniture in the room wobbly. The Refrigerator, microwave and TV were good. Bed ok, too soft for my taste but ok.

The property is old. So there are some things that may not be up to the standard of some people. With that being said for it being an older property the place is clean, quiet and comfortable. The staff is great. Great place for an affordable room.
