Okay hotel with no frills. Room had few towels, floor felt dirty. And bedding seemed old but sheets were clean and bed was comfortable. Cost more than it should for what it was.

Scary and stained
I ended up checking out before midnight due to the state of the room (stains and cigarette holes everywhere) and fearing my safety. There was also a huge gap in the bottom of the door and lizards coming in. Not worth $140 at all!
