6/10
The room was quite clean, the bed was so comfortable that even my arthritic back was happy with it. The owner/operators were very polite and helpful.
They took a $50 deposit, and I can understand why. The place looks like it’s been badly neglected for a long time; I hope it’s in the possession of a family intent on fixing it up, and if that’s the case, I can see some progress.
When I arrived the place was nearly empty, and those people who were there had the look of people far, far down on their luck. The deposit makes sense in light of the sort of damaged that might happen with people struggling with many issues. I did get my deposit back, of course.
The room was in decent shape, functionally. There was a strip of decorative wall-tile torn off from around the sink, there were scratches on a number of places on the paint, and several more significant gouges into the wall (see above, types of residents).
I wasn’t pleased with the door lock or condition of the door itself, but had no problems with security; it just didn’t look all that sturdy.
If this place was purchased recently, then it looks to me like they’re working on improving it. If it’s 2026 and someone reads this, tries the place out, and it still looks just as beat-up, that’s another matter. I wish them luck.
