My bed literally had bugs all over it and I didn’t want the room anyway she claimed it was an upgrade then stalked me my whole visit. Felt overwhelmed.

Great location and just an easy place to be. Staff was very friendly and helpful, I got lucky and had a 6 dorm with just one other person, so very quiet. Would stay again for sure.
