This property is in the ghetto ghetto proper. Came in and heard gunshots. I did not spend the night there.

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
I did everything by the book and was still denied entry due to not having received a code to the door. I had to find another place. And since Expedia was unable to contact them, my refund was denied. So 0 out of 10.
