Awful
This place is TERRIBLE.
 Please don’t waste your money.
Book a better place, even if it costs a little more. I saw a review saying there was no toilet paper or soap, but there actually was. However, they didn’t give me a towel.
This place has nothing except a bed with a dirty blanket. This seems to be a place where people with no housing stay. They were complaining about everything, and that’s why their situations remain unstable. When you arrive, you’re given a bed, and someone else might be sleeping in the bunk below you. The other guests do nothing but stay there.
There was a pregnant woman who wouldn’t stop talking on the phone. She kept burping loudly, which was disgusting. Two men frequently came to her room (my room) and stayed all night. She even brought a TV from downstairs and set it up in the room. The volume was so loud, and they didn’t care if others were trying to sleep. They even turned off the lights during the day just to watch TV.
 One man didn’t bother knocking and opened the door while I was in the bathroom. The longer I stayed, the more problems I noticed with this place.
 Please choose a better place to stay to keep yourself safe and comfortable!

The place is filthy. I down think anyone have ever done any cleaning. You know it's a class operation when they have an old fly strip hanging in the kitchen

DO NOT STAY HERE. I had the worst experience here. It is basically like a trap/drug house and is in a dangerous area. It was noisy and very very dirty and the owner is aggressive and not friendly. One night that I stayed there was fighting between two guys and they were kicked out at 3am in the morning and I felt unsafe so I left early. I wouldn’t recommend anyone to stay here.

"Modern" Indeed
Difficult to find, no sign, appears to be a residence. Difficult check-in procedure and unprofessional service. Grimy and dirty. Rude patrons playing audio and being loud late because there are no rules. Many other patrons are clearly living there rather than traveling. Smoke detector chirps every minute or so. Woke to the sound of a rooster.

Perdí mi dinero llewmgue tarde en la noche y no tenían cama después que me cobraron y luego la cama que me dieron esa noche el que supuestamente pago por ella apareció y me brinco encima por su cama. No pude dormir todo sucio y apestoso. Solicitó un reembolso de dinero porque no voy a reservar más con ustedes.
