Cheap hotel but this one is bare minimum in comfort and amenities. Room was clean, hallways needed vacuuming and the hotel and room were very outdated. Toilet took ten minutes to fill and towels were are rough as a floor mat. Looked like there were a few long-term tenants that may be living there permanently who appeared to be one step from being homeless. They don't even give you a key in a paper holder which caused mine to demagnetize twice during the two days I was there because it was in my pocket next to my phone. Hotel is cheap but you get what you pay for.
