Just sleep in your car,,,

Not a hotel. This is an single room occupancy residence that used to be a hotel but still can't sell enough monthly leases. The checkin took over 15 minutes.The kind staff gave us the best room in the house overlooking a lovely closed but algae green pool, There is no bar onsite. Lots of food and stuff nearby - which is good, you won't want to spend any more time on the property than is absolutely necessary.
