Low income option

Great for migrants new to the country that might need a place to stay at an affordable rate. They accept various types of payments from pesos to Zelle. You can walk to the Mexican border from the location.

I don't like the way they tried to charge extra money when you do the checking with allegations about expidia have not ready the information for your reservation. They want to have your credit card information by phone call.
