Patricia at the front desk is the only thing I would give a thumbs up. The facility is a dump. Wall paper coming off the wall. Baseboards coming off, AC is a joke, elevator not working, TV was not properly working had to ask Patricia for help she went out of her way to fix the problem. You get what you pay for. Stayed one night. Reserve only as last resort.
