“Absolutely filthy and disgusting”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 August 2011

people found this review helpful

I'm sorry but this hotel is so gross that I wouldn't let my dog spend a night here. The prices are actually high considering this might be the most ghetto and disgusting hotel in the city.

“How much do you have to sacrifice for "economy"?”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 September 2010

people found this review helpful

This place is a dump! People beg for money in the very small parking lot. People wait around the main key-card locked door in order to sneak in behind you.
