2/10 Terrible

Disliked: Cleanliness, communication, location, listing accuracy
Sorry to say but this place was very dirty, no working hot water fixtures and the kitchen didn’t even have windows, just iron bars that a cat or raccoon could easily climb through. The location is on an extremely busy road, very loud place to try and sleep. I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone.
