Disgusting. Hair and live bugs on the towels. Drug deal observed in parking lot. Super sketchy area. We were warned by a local not to stay here. Wound up checking out an hour after checking in due to the unsafe area/disgusting conditions.

Do not stay here with kids. It felt unsafe. The lights in the bathroom didn't work and it felt like there were holes under the carpet when you walked. I would NOT recommend this place.
