Parking was easy, but with the people out there smoking weed, you may just get a contact high walking to your room. Cleaning staff had no idea where the check in office was nor if I could get more than 2 towels for for people or if the dirty blankets on both beds could be changed. Wi-Fi... If you wanna call it that... Was spotty at best.

The room smelled like dirty socks and shoes… the mattress was very dirty with nasty stains. The white sheets had stains on them and the blankets was dingy looking. It took a long time before the shower water became hot. I ask the desk for some fresh sheets and towels and they told me they didn’t have any more sheets available
