Floor was dirty upon arrival and there was a huge gap in between the ac and outside we could see right outside but we stuffed a towel in it so bugs didn’t come in. But the location was nice and the bed was comfy.

Was extraordinarily noisy throughout the entire night-on premises and off. I left a day early. Room was clean but powerful smell of cleaning products. A/C made a banging noise every time it turned on and ran very noisy. The staff was pleasant.
