This turned out to be the perfect place for the crew to have the comforts of home while being on the go for an out-of-town project. ##### Mary W.

May 22, 2025 Liked: Check-in Disliked: Cleanliness, location, listing accuracy #### Listing completely different from in- person The parking area was good. Once we entered the building the floors were dusty and had trash on the floor. One of the bathrooms stunk and nothing could be done to remove that aroma. Rooms from the listing looked good but there were cracks all over the ceiling and walls. The blankets on the bed had stains on them, some looked like blood stains. ##### Johnathan P.
