It was awful. There was roaches in the room. People outside all around the parking lot. There was bullet holes in the walls. It did not seem like a safe place to stay. I was scared that I would not have a car when I woke up the next morning. I left there and got another hotel room for the night.

It is a horrible place full of roaches and the water will freeze you one minute and burn you the next. If you reserve a room and choose to pay at the property they will run your card in attempt to charge you before you ever arrive. Crooks!!

Filthy dirty. Cigarette burns in the sheets, hole in the wall, broken mirrors broken glass on the picture, nasty curtains, toilet wobbled super bad where I was afraid to use it. I was to afraid to walk back past the drug dealers to get a refund and call an uber. The worst place I have ever seen. On a bright note the shower was clean and the water was hot.

We have free Wi-Fi but signal strength is so low you can't even login. It's pointless unless you want to stand by the office to use it.
