Convenient location. Poor place for meeting people, common space are not very enjoyable (dirty, old, dark, smelly, uncomfortable). Mostly older (30-50) people staying there. The room had no efficient ventilation => smelly, humid Had to call out for unfriendly behaviours : Answering phone calls, speaker on, at 6 am in the room / Dirty use of the bathroom

I wish I could fully support this place, however: I heard more cussing and derogatory remarks being yelled throughout the property by staff and guests than ever before: As I am studying for my graduate thesis and beyond, I do not want to smell smoke: people are smoking pot inside the male dorm and in the common areas: a federal crime. Additionally, tobacco smoke leeches into the movies room for a private area outside. I had my food taken from the fridge and left out to rot. Staff did nothing.
