"The place is one step above a flophouse, shoddy carpeting in hallway, the bathroom fixtures in room were in disrepair and when I tried to turn on the heater it made a couple popping sounds with a whiff of electrical fire smoke so turned it off. The bed was OK. It was relatively cheap to stay for a single guy traveler and it lived down to that reputation. Would NOT recommend to a woman or couple."
