Perfect for a working man
First impression seemed kinda sketchy just looking at the building at night. Walked in front desk lady was extremely welcoming and friendly. Booked me in right away, 2 minutes tops. Room was kinda ran down but i think the price was fair. Everything worked the tub was kinda clogged and walls were thin. Seen a couple roaches but everything seemed clean except the walls.

The overall appearance was run down. The room
I stayed in smelled. Air conditioning grills were dirty. Wall, doors, and furniture were smudged with dirt and grease.
