The room was very clean and comfortable. It needs a bench to put bags; and the kitchenette needs updated. The microwave didn't actually work.

Full Kitchen was helpful to have to start the day with breakfast and prepare lunches to go. Water pressure in shower not great. Overall it worked well for our short stay, was convenient to where we wanted to go, comfortable nice big bed. Would stay again.
This place is very run down. Pots outside each door were full of cigarette butts, filthy carpet, window didn’t lock, no security lock on the door, blinds broken to list a few things. Kitchen very poorly appointed. Looked like they hit a few garage sales. There were only 3 spoons and decorative bowls for cereal bowls. Gnats all in the place also. I had to ask for basics like dish soap because they require you wash your own dishes.
