You will never find a place where the owners treat you like family I've had to live there for months at a time. Even been there in between jobs. And they let me and my family stay 2 weeks with out paying up front!! I seen some people saying bad things on the reviews but you will not find a place cheaper or a place with owners who treat you better than a lot of your own blood
