No stuff on duty when I was checking in at 8pm, the office was locked. Had to call 3 times when he responded thru unknown message account. Thought it was a spam in my first impression.

They should be banned from listing on here. The picture are not as it appears on the website. They should be shut down by the city. They moved me to better room but still filthy floors

Great for migrants new to the country that might need a place to stay at an affordable rate. They accept various types of payments from pesos to Zelle. You can walk to the Mexican border from the location.

I don't like the way they tried to charge extra money when you do the checking with allegations about expidia have not ready the information for your reservation. They want to have your credit card information by phone call.
