If something happens to the room they need a card on file to charge.
They probably been robbed before so they not gonna accept cash
Nor fish they only accept a credit card at check in and once you check out you can choose to pay cash and they reimburse your card but it can take up to 14 days to get back on card but other than that awesome place to stay for the cheap price I couldn't complain
