We didn’t even feel safe enough to stay here, we left after someone kept watching us and waited outside our door!!! We didn’t even go in the room! We only needed to stay here one night to sleep and got it because it was cheap and every other hotel was almost 200$ for one night. Trust me pay the 200$ for any other place than here!

**DO NOT STAY IN THIS PLACE** The whole place smells like a strange mixture between drvgs and vomit. The door didn't close from the inside and not to mention the bathroom, which was full of mold. The shower had white particles that we didn't know what it was about. We were only there the time necessary to find a better place to stay. We would NEVER go back.

I asked for a second set of sheets to lay on the bed because i was pretty sure mine were dirty and was told they didn't have any but they had large towels I could use. TV remote didn’t have batteries and my shower didn't get warm. Otherwise friendly staff, easy check-in and convenient for the price.

Shower was definitely the worse thing about the room. It was alright but I suggest just paying the extra 20 or so bucks and you can get a much nicer room close by
