Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Never received check in information, had to call from multiple phones to receive answer. Found dirty shorts underneath bed, doors don’t close, boarded up window, exposed screws on the couch - my friend cut their foot on the screw. Overall was not worth the price based on the above and more that was not stated. Would not recommend.
