This property look and smell like a crackhead infested motel. The rooms were disgusting, with water damage walls and roaches. I check in and check back out the same day. They stated that a manager would get in touch with me regarding a refund, but i've haven't heard from anyone regarding this issue.

Booked very last minute w/o reading reviews, or likely would gone elsewhere. Property very dated, with updates needed. Sink faucet was about to fall off.Room was clean, as were beds/sheets, but there were several cockroaches in the room. Breakfast was a snack bag w/sunny d and a few wrapped pastries. Staff was nice and though it looked a bit sketchy, all turned out ok for a single night stay.
