There were a lot of people that seemed to be living there and making it like home. Drinking and smoking in the stairwell, dogs, barking, people with the doors open cooking and having gatherings. People up all during the night like it was an apartment complex where people lived having a party.

Wet dog smell

Was clearly pet friendly. We didn't bring ours but our room smelled like a dirty dog. The floors were spongy and felt wet. The ac worked but when you went near it you could smell the dog smell even worse.
