The location was amazing and the overall cleanliness was too. Only thing about it would be that the beds run smaller than you’d think.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Small rooms and bathrooms. Several roaches/waterbugs. No paperwork on arrival with information such as Wi-Fi, etc… First level is dark and musty. A lot of basic repairs needed. Like door handle falling off, doors not closing/opening easily. Excellent location. Would be better if some basic repairs/updates were done and have exterminator/holes from outside addressed.
