None of the lights worked, refrigerator didn’t work, no light bulbs in bed lamps, one very flimsy per pillow , two towels. When I approached the front desk she said there was no maintenance available and nothing she could do.

Pros:

The rooms were dirty and had no fitted sheet so you’re essentially sleeping on a bare mattress. Plenty of long term residents wandering around the halls throughout the night yelling, hanging out in the parking lot and premises. Staff was nice enough.
