Just for giggles. I am NOT recommending this, but you might want to
use this address as a way to rule out hotels (i.e. avoid anything
nearby). It's about as cheap as it gets (~$55?) though. Bring
electric guitars, a fifth of Everclear and some crystal meth for the
complete Rock 'n Roll experience. Pretty much the same goes for the
whole neighborhood (Aurora N. strip) I like it cause in a city full of
Native Americans, they've never bothered to take down their offensive
stereotyping shtick. Shows integrity, of a sort ;-)

Check out this review:
"My stay was not great. I needed a room for 2 people. I was sent to a
room with 2 beds, one had sheets the other did not. The floor looked
like it had not been cleaned in a long time. There was trash under the
bed and in the bathroom under the sink left from the person before. 2
out of the 4 lights worked in the room. I think it was for the beter
that i could not see half the room.
Pros: can see the city from the parking lot. Free Parking
Cons: Dirty, Dark"
