This place is disgusting! The walls, bathroom, sheets, blankets, and the entire room were filthy! Want a shower? Nope, there is a shower head in the tub but no way to turn it on. I had to have a bath and use a paper cup to rinse my waist-length hair. Fun times. The bathroom floor is made up of ceramic tiles that are cracked and broken. I cut my foot on a raised edge. Luckily it was a small cut. I laid down on the bed and felt something hard. I reached under the sheet, and there was a lighter under the fitted sheet. There was no back or battery in the remote, so they brought them up, but it was a waste of time as the TV did not even work. Check-out time: 7:30 AM. No one was at the office; the door was locked. I and another guest could not check out. The other guest left; I'm not sure if they came back to get the deposit back or not, but I came back after my MRI appointment and got the $150.00 back, although what more could be "damaged" in the room, I don't know.

The room was quite gross, sheets and pillows had stains and the bathroom was unclean. There was a fight outside a couple rooms down, lots of yelling. Just very uncomfortable vibes.
