2/10 Poor

Absolutely crap hole!!! Doesnt look anyting like the pictures. They want $100 security deposit for what is beyond me. No soap, no toiket paper, no tissues. Room is run down. Tv hanging off the wall with a big gash in it and didn't even work. Bags of trash ripped open outside the door. Ice covered by the exits. If you go out you can't come back in you have to walk around the whole place to get to the front. Wouldn't return our money because we wanted to leave because it wasnt like what was online and not safe. Could hear the person in there room. I think people lived there. wanted to leave because we didnt feel safe.

You get what you pay for, maybe less.

This wasa no frill place. Shower did not work, effort had to be done to close the door, a little worn down, and the location is a little inconvenient.
