The room was okay. Pretty clean. Mattress was old but soft and comfortable. Air conditioner worked very well. None of the furniture matched, which is not a big deal. Staff was nice. Pool was filled in with dirt and looked like they may be planting flowers.

The first room had no shower curtain. The second room had no toilet paper which the front desk quickly rectified. The two rooms were both moldy. I highly recommend the management pull up the carpeting and polish the concrete. The people at the front desk were awesome.
