We checked in and right back out. The room was filthy, it stunk, nasty pillows and pillow cases. Cigarette burns all on the dresser. Black around the bath tub. Other guests outside smoking weed. This is definitely NOT suitable for travelers with children. I do not know how safe the area is, but the parking lot itself was full of people sitting outside with chairs from their rooms. Abandoned shopping carts. This is a case of emergency only place to stay!
