It's your typical cheap hotel alongside the highway, perfect if you want to really save money but other than that it's old, killed two roaches, took pictures, needs to be remodeled, tough crowd hanging around, obviously various deals going down, shady people hanging around and a few vagrants or homeless people, had a tough time sleeping worrying. The intake lady at the counter treated us like we were your normal riff raff, I might be I guess but I'm a retired LEO. The checkout girl was much nicer, smiled, respected us.
