Difficult to access. Property is located off a busy road with only one entry and exit. Exterior has been renovated. Rooms have new accents. Entry from parking lot was not secured and messy. Air conditioner was noisy. Lots of scuffs on walls. Could use a thorough cleaning.

Place is on a busy highway and it’s difficult to pull into the facility without causing traffic. Whole place smells like strong detergent smell you would think it would be super clean but floors are not properly cleaned. Floors where dirty and bed cover has 3 cigarette bud burns.
