The room was nasty. I am used to staying in cheap rooms but this was gross. Trash left by the last person who stayed there, mold covering the shower curtain, broken furniture, and only glad a roll of toilet paper. I also found hair on the sheets. Upon check in they couldn't give me a a key thmachine wasn't working .
