To all avoid this Hotel at all cost. Pay $10 cash for a towel deposit. Room was unclean broken everything when you turn around. Stains everywhere, you look up and the bathroom fan is falling out. Kids in the hallway blocking you to go down the stairs. Front desk clerk dressed in dirty clothes and didn't know how to check in customers. Boxes off snacks from Costco all around her. Disrespectful all around. For your safety stay away.

Filthy. No towels. No toilet paper. No soap. No sheets on bed. Filthy pillows. Filthy comforter. Bed collapsed. Lights didn’t work (except in the bathroom). Smelled like pot everywhere. Not suitable for even a crack den. Beware beware beware.
