Moyen, trop de bruit et pas de réel petit déjeuner comme annoncé
Pros:

Situation géographique, chambre spacieuse et propre

Cons:

Chambre louée soi-disant avec un "breakfast", mais en fait aucun petit déjeuner! Il s'agissait en fait d'un récipient de café et d'un panier contenant des barres de céréales industrielles que l'on pouvait prendre avant de retourner dans sa chambre...Trop près de l'autoroute (bruit de circulation); première nuit bruyante à cause d'un locataire au dessus qui a fait les 100 pas toute la nuit dans sa chambre...

Noisy, dirty and poor value
Pros:

The palm trees were nice

Cons:

My room was about 15’ from the railroad track and trains ran until at least 2am so it was very noisy. The bathroom was damp and mildewed and the shower surround was peeling off the wall.

Nice staff, but not the safest location. Pay a little more to stay somewhere else.
Pros:

Staff — Brandon was friendly and polite.

Cons:

Location- I wouldn’t walk alone outside. Safety - there were suspicious looking tenants staying here that even the lobby closes their doors after certain hours, you’ll have to do your transaction via glass window and small opening. The rooms were old and outdated - out a/c wouldn’t stay on and our comforters had cigarette burns even though it was supposed to be a smoke free room.
