Ok for the Minimalist

You need to phone when you arrive as there is no one in the office but that only took an extra minute or two. Staff were very friendly and offered to help in any way. TV cabinet in room was empty and nothing was provided other than towels and 1 little roll of TP. Location was super convenient to get on and off I-95. Many restaurants and stores just down the road a mile or two. If your looking for basic accommodation this is your place. Nothing fancy!

Very run down. Holes on walls, torn carpets, lamps with no lamp shades, dirty linens and towels, broken furniture with cigarette burns, no toilet paper, no trash can, no tv, micro wave, no fridge, though the last two were provided after request. However, the fridge did not work. I took a chance on a budget room and lost.
