The property was not clean by any means. We had to switch rooms when we arrived. They are very outdated and need renovations, new furniture BAD! I wanted to like staying there, but I felt disgusted the entire time. The best thing was the stove and AC worked. Tv does not work.

I appreciate the location and accessibility of the property, which are both great. However, I was very disappointed by the cleanliness of some of the buildings both inside and out. The condition of the mattress was especially troubling. It was extremely uncomfortable, itchy, and caused skin irritation, making for a very unpleasant experience. I hope you take this feedback seriously and address these issues for future guests.

Disappointing and dirty

Check in and room was fine, breakfast was ok. The facility itself was very old and walk up stairs for half the rooms. It’s full of cracked concrete, trash in the stairwell, stains and makeup ground into the carpet. Loud neighbors and marijuana smells. Do not stay here, especially with kids.
