Horrible
Pros:

I didnt like anything at all.

Cons:

There’s no security. I feel like everyone cen just go there and roam around. My room smells like smoke so I didn’t take there for too long, I checked in 10Pm i checked put at 12am. I supposed to checked out at 11am but I couldn’t stand it anymore. When I was inside the room I could hear some strangers talking outside of my room at 12am and they were too loud and smelled smoke. The room looks dirty as well, the floor looked like no one swept. I wouldn’t stay in here anymore.

No bueno bad rooms
Pros:

Bad property no recommend for no one A terrible place—the room reeked of cigarettes, the mattresses were broken and stained with urine, and the walls were hideous; it was a disgusting place. It was much better eight years ago; now it’s a hangout for vagrants. I will never stay there again—it needs a complete renovation.

Pros:

Proximity to stores and food. No deposit required.

Cons:

Everything! Run down, dirty walls, dirty towel holders etc. The cheap flooring in the bathroom is clearly water damaged. Mold on cocking in bath room. Saw a roach in the morning. One walkway on lower level has serious fly issues. The room smelled like someone smoked a million cigarettes, they don’t even bother getting the smell out prior to a new guest. Stains on sheets, anima hair on bed. Chair missing from my room. TV non functional due to someone stealing the copper out of the cable that provides channels. Staff definitely knew and didn’t advise me when assigning my room. The AC was filthy
