8.0 out of 10, Very good, (7 reviews)
"This hotel is a real dive! Very disorganized front desk - they tried to give me a smaller room than I paid for - then put me on the third floor which is smoking - and no elevator. The outside had a lot of cig bits and empty alcohol bottles. Outside doors did not latch so no security. Finally, the mattress was flipped to the spring side- who only knows why. DO NOT believe the 5 star reviews - they have to be FAKE!"
