5Would never stay there again! The rooms were tiny, and stuffed with bunk beds, the bathroom had holes in the walls, the parking was crazy. Now for single, traveling person, this might work. But I personally need my privacy.

Scary Trap House

One night stands only for a hot shower and to escape bad weather. The residents who stay all day need to be evicted. The elderly that stay are absolutely kind and deserving. The rest of the staff need to be replaced. The neighbors on the street are always checking the people who stay at the house on the beat. Due to the constant trap house environment the honest customers are ran off the property.
