   STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE! We got our phones and our documents stolen from a private room! Yes, it's a private room, not a shared room, and it was locked by key, and someone just came from the closed window while we were outside! And imagine that it was around 4:30 p.m., so everyone was there and around! Can you imagine? And guess what? Anyone can take off the window and just enter! And they know that very well, and the police told us it happened the same way many times before, and they all know the person, but they didn't fix the problem or put a more secure window!!! And the next day, the workers entered our room by key while we were out, and since it's a private room, they shouldn't enter without permission at all! Which made me think they have a hand in this because how can the person know each time we go out!? This place told us they have a high crime rate, and they know very well the people who do this! The room is terrible! We paid near $200 per night for a private room that was really bad, old, and so small that it didn't have anything. There is no AC, the room is so hot, there is no private restroom, and there is not even a mini refrigerator. And if people talk outside, you can feel that they are with you inside the room, and the location is bad and far from everything. They also get people to volunteer to work for free and just give them a terrible bed in a terrible room, and that's it without any money for them like slaves. The owner is young, and she doesn't know how to run a business. She just cares about making so much money without spending any money to improve this terrible place. She didn't care at all about what happened, as it's normal for them and it happened many times before, and she even came after to apologize, check on us, or offer anything, even if it's simple! This place is horrible! If I had the authority, I would shut down this place immediately for lack of security. STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE!
