The staff was very nice. Room was old and dirty. Paper thin walls. Could hear the guy next door coughing and hacking away like he was sitting next to me. The door looked like it had been broken into few times before. Shower was gross. Didnt even stay the night

Manager was very friendly and had a good sense of humor. Even though the room was very small and very close to other rooms, there was no real noise. They were sold out, so all of the rooms were full, but I was not bothered by other guests. I enjoyed my stay!

Walls are very thin so we could clearly hear the neighbors conversations. The room had a very musty, ashtray scent to it. Definitely getting what you pay for. Could definitely use some updating.

David

Disliked: Amenities
The beds were great and pillows as well. The carpet was very dirty even though you could see where the vacuum had gone it still was dirty. The toilet was very loose and the water pressure in the shower was very weak. The room did not have a desk and the TV had very limited stations to chose from. Some of the outlets were not working. Thus my computer was dead in the morning.
