Property looks nothing like online pictures. Broken entrance window covered with cardboard. Had to have sheets changed upon check in as there was bunch of long hair intertwined with bedding. Fridge and microwave appeared dirty but was stained. Shady cars and people all hours day and night. Drug impaired people loitering outside doors at 8am.
