This property is in the ghetto ghetto proper. Came in and heard gunshots. I did not spend the night there.

There was assignment error of the bed I was suppose to be given. The bunk beds are NOT stable on laminate floors. A/C is poorly that I saw another attendee take and use a portable fan. The houses used are NOT modern looking like the images shown on this site. The roommates were friendly though.

I did everything by the book and was still denied entry due to not having received a code to the door. I had to find another place. And since Expedia was unable to contact them, my refund was denied. So 0 out of 10.
