It was cheap, but not a place I would stay for more than a few days.  Good cable and a decent room and not a bad price.  It is run by an Indian family, the father was nice, the mother seems stern, and the kid is just...words can't describe him.  If you speak English, be ready for a mutual misunderstanding between you and the kid.  I asked for a Do Not Disturb sign (which they don't seem to have any of) and he gave me towels.  They also wanted to charge me half a day's rent if I were to check out two hours past check out time.

The clients that it attracts can be something else too.  The people next door had their TV up loud as hell, people were yelling in accents at night, and sometimes early in the morning, and doors (rooms and cars) were constantly being slammed at night.  Some of the people just looked shady too.

While this sounds like it would deserve less than 3 stars, it is an okay place for a few nights and/or if you don't plan on staying in the room much during your stay.  Although i REALLY would be tempted to knock it down a half star for the lack of do not disturb signs.  What the hell is that about?  But I did have a microwave and a fridge and it was pretty cheap, so i could not expect much more.  Although i am not a very tall man and I am taller than the placement of shower head.
