Fairly clean.

Called me at 11pm demanding more money, they took money at least 5 times adding up to about 700. Stay away!

"Disappointed"

1.0

Nothing.

Start with location. We almost got jumped in the parking lot at check in. Breakfast didn't have much of anything. Place was dirty. Bathtub fixtures falling out. Bathroom towel rack falling off wall. Hole behind toilet. Homeless person was trying to get in while we were trying to leave in the early morning.

"It was horrible. I recommend no one book this place as it’s a dump."

1.0

The only thing I liked about this facility as it was cheap; however, I truly learned the lesson that you get what you pay for.

This facility was horrible. Worse than the first time I stayed a few years ago. I picked this location as it was close to my aunt for my uncle’s funeral. When I arrived I’m standing there waiting to be helped and thank goodness the other girl mentioned it as finally the other staff member assisted me. The bed was so bad I couldn’t sleep and my body is still hurting from the 1 night. The breakfast was a joke. They had waffle mix and cold cereal. I reported the horrible breakfast and they said they don’t provide protein or other options but on the weekends. The staff were limited accessible so I just dealt with it. I will never stay at this location again.

I like that they were very nice and considerate but I left early like 2 days early I think wouldn't give me my rest of my money back but they did give me my deposit

I didn't like that I checked out on Wednesday instead of Friday or Tuesday instead of Friday and then get my money back because they said that I had a prmo so I lost my money but my aunt was really sick and she been dying and I had to get back home

"Our stay was enjoyable."

We didn't eat breakfast. I liked that there was a place outside for smokers.

The price of pop and water in the vending machines, but i realize that everything has gone up in cost.
