READ THIS IF UR WANTING TO STAY HERE
Pros:

I didn't like any of it when we where just walking up to the hotel there where women out side the hotel that just left the strip club (which is right across the street) trying to make a little extra cash if u know what I mean. So the rooms don't come with towels or toilet paper u ask to get that at the front desk the elevator doesn't work and u have to walk up the stairs with 1-2 inches of gunk and stuff on it. Going down the hallway there was dried throw up in the carpet that's been there at least a month. When we entered the room it was terrible the floors coming up there was USED NEEDLES in the bathroom and there was a USED NARCAN (a medicine that's given by emts when you overdose on drugs) and right beside it was a blunt already smoked on right beside the bed. That's just what we found in the room if you want to watch TV u better bring ur own if u don't want your nextdoor neighbors watching u sleep bring duck tape because there's holes in the walls straight through and if u don't want to hear your neighbors and the girls from out side entertaining them selves I would suggest get some really good ear muffs. This place needs the health department honestly because there are kids living in here not 14-18 year olds I am talking about 1-10 year olds crawling and running around in this it's sad! We only stayed 1 night and that 1 night was more than enough the cops stayed longer than we did.
