Won’t be going back there again
Pros:

The room was fine. Shower and toilet were fine. Mini fridge worked well but had to pay extra to have it in my room :( My dog could stay with me at no charge so that was nice. The young lady and young guys at the front desk were polite and nice which made being there a little less worse.

Cons:

The air conditioner smelled like mildew which was a bummer. The bed was not comfortable and clearly had been used by someone in the same place for a long period of time before my use of the room. The man at the front desk wasn’t very nice when I first arrived and I was staying for a whole month and he was still not very nice to me which really gave me a bad first impression. I was in a room with adjoining doors and that made the sound proofing of the Nextdoor room horrible and I could hear everything that was being said and going on in the room next to me at all hours of the night which was very strange and made me feel uncomfortable which really ruined my stay.
