Sketchy area. People just standing around in bigger groups. Entry door had its share of dents. Room was REALLY outdated. Outlet covers off…. Easily could fit a finger in to a hot wire. Toilet looked like it was 20 years old with hard use. I’ve seen truck stop toilets that look better. I’d have to be REALLY tired and desperate for a place to sleep or take a dump before I went back

Guy at desk checking in was very nice. People cleaning too loud in morning and taking up entire hallway when entering room. 45 Hispanics in outdoor area concerning. Felt we should of been warned about the Hispanics when checking in. We aren't racist people but felt a bit unsafe.
