This hotel makes the perfect home away from home. The enormous and inexpensive rooms are one of the primary reasons why it is so popular. Some rooms have kitchens and/or living rooms. Other reasons though, include the beautiful gardens, the lovely pool patio and the guest laundry facilities.

The room was a disaster, I felt dirty and unsafe. The AC didn't work, the top dead bolt lock was torn off. There were red stains on the lampshade (blood?) and the carpet was a mess.
