It was affordable and safe

It was not clean at all, the bedding was not clean the room really stank it was almost impossible to stay in that room with the door closed for a long time Having to sleep with that smell is another story, everything was dusty I couldn't eat in that room I understand that the price was fair but the place could've honestly been cleaned properly because some people get sick easily

Nothing was to like

The facility was dirty, smelled like piss, no help at the register, people smoking on the premises, the place is NOTHING like the pictures, poorly furnished and poorly maintained.
