Liked: Staff & service
The room was simple and clean, and the staff were excellent! Perfect for our night!
Dreadful place. My room was an addition to what looked like an abandoned crack house.
Floor was dirty beyond belief.
Lipstick on a pig.
Sign saying resturant closed today had probably been up for years.
No reception, or reception desk, just a phone # to call.
Look for another place.
