The deadbolt on the door didn't work and there were several undesirable people hanging around...didn't feel safe. The room itself was clean, but the toilet looked as if it had been unused for a long time with a dirty ring in the bowl.

It was difficult to enter the property from the South as the highway at this location is marked with double yellow lines, which in most duristrictions means you cannot cross the center line at this location. Entering the property involved turning around
