The beds bring comfortable was the only good thing about the stay. Construction started at 7 am outside (on the road directly in front of the property. The bathroom in our room was the least appealing part. Stained sink/ countertop, shower handle fell off trying to turn it on. Water came out either piercing hot or cold.

This property is an older facility that has in many respects seen better days. However, the rusty bath tub and the dilapidated exterior of the building was incidental next to the clear evidence of alcohol use and drug use of the large group of ... what appeared to us to be permanent residence of a bunch of panhandling and abusive derelicts that were in our face from the time we arrived until we left to go have dinner and then after they all poured out of their rooms as soon as pulled back into yhe parking lot ... we grabbed our belongings and sped away from the property with our property and lives intact and unmolested. We have NO DOUBT, that if we'd have stayed ... it would have ended badly with injury and loss of property. We strongly recommend that NO ONE STAY AT THIS PROPERTY!!

A woman was screaming 2 doors down in the middle of the night, the police came for domestic violence, another guest was waving 2 guns at people and the police had to be called the same night, then the fire alarm went off at 7 am. The ceiling in the bathroom was leaking water the entire stay as well. The outside door which is supposed to need a key card to get in to the building was also broken and anyone can walk into the building. The parking lot is filthy and full of trash, the bathroom door is rusty in the room. The owners are letting the place fall down around them.
