Room was clean, but the property is obviously old and in need of updating. Mattress very hard and pillows very flat. No A/C, only a very noisy fan. Front desk staff were friendly.

Do NOT book here! They are a scam. My husband and I booked, called to ask about checking in late, and they refused to honor or booking. They were rude when trying to check in.
