I didn’t feel it was worth the money. I’d look elsewhere next time for something updated with a proper bathroom and bed

Liked:Staff were friendly. It was conveniently located.

Disliked:The bathroom situations need updating. It’s terrible. The sink didn’t drain. There is black mold on the door to the bathroom because the shower sprays directly onto it, and there is zero ventilation. People constantly trying to open our doors. Happened 3 times thankfully the chain was on. Bathroom drains smelled like cat pee. You can see water damage in the carpet outside the bathroom. Ceiling tiles filled with dust. Bed was not a King or two singles as advertised. That was a Queen bed. Sad there was no mini fridge or ice maker I had to keep my medicine cold. I had to keep getting ice from staff. They were very friendly, but room felt like a let down.
