| - 3.5/5 stars South tower
The best/worst 3 star motel I've ever stayed at.
I "rented" a bed here for almost 5 months. 3 months in gen pop 2 months in the psych ward.
If you're lucky enough to go to gen pop 5K or even 5L (the workers module ((they have a microwave and real hot coffee and don't forget the burrito cart)) but you work in laundry but they do have overflow gen pop)
It's dorm style, it's like a slumber party with 70 other girls. It's really not so bad. You get a twin size bed with plastic wrapped cotton mattress. And a metal table attached to dresser shelves type thing for your belongings. Wake up 3 am for face card count, tuck in your nightgown, (take it off depends on the CO) make your bed 'cos chows on deck (breakfast) which if you're lucky is oatmeal and a bologna sandwich (my favorite). Afterwards go back to bed until 7am when morning meds and morning free-time starts. Read the newspaper and have some freeze dried coffee, watch the news or cartoons your choice of at least 30 cable channels, take a hot shower or use the phone. Until 9am when you must be back at your beds for chow again! Lunch is usually a starch of some kind either rice, potatoes or pasta with shmeat, beans and a random veggie like carrots or peas maybe on the side most of the time mixed together with the shmeat and beans. And if you're lucky a slice of bread that you can save for PB and Js with your commissary if you're so fortunate back at your bunk. (The Vegetarian Trays always looked best most of the time PB J or plain starch no shmeat.) oh and some weak ass Koolaide and most likely a really delicious cookie or cake that can be used to barter a-whole-nother tray if you find the right person who gets commissary and doesn't eat the trays except the sweets. After chow it's back to your bunks til 11am when Afternoon free time begins. Afternoon medicine comes around 2pm and it's back to your bunks at 3pm for yet again another face to card count (to make sure no one escaped) before dinner chow. Another great starch/shmeat/bean veggie combo, sometimes you can find pieces of lunch recycled in with dinner. Another sweet and this time the koolaide is more concentrated and actually tastes like koolaide. Then it's time to digest your food for a couple hours. Depending on what day it is Tuesday's at 5pm is linen day. Meaning once every week you swap your bed sheets and two pairs of socks, underwear, bras, shirts, pants and nightgown and get clean ones. Also Tuesday's, Thursday's and Sunday's you can sign up for Razor Pass. Where they call you up in pairs to use the showers and hand out single blade razors. Most COs give you 2-5 mins to use the razor and if you go over the time you receive a 24 hour lockdown (no free-time must stay in your bunk for 24hours) they start the time for razor pass at 6pm and it usually takes an hour which works because at 7pm it's Evening Free-time (Given that everyone in the module has been good inmates and hasn't pissed the CO off to take free time away which in that case free-time could start later or end earlier or not at all. 11pm it's Read, write or sleep. Lights out. So all in all on a good day you can have 10 hours of free-time! The rest you spend sleeping. It's not bad if you're looking for a free vacation spot and don't have money or a place to stay and got yourself stuck there for a while short term. I got a lot of writing done. Bad poetry and short stories. Drank tons of crack coffee and ate coffee balls and gained my weight in ramen burritos. All was well in 5K gen pop.
However
1/5stars North Tower
You do NOT want to be in the psych ward or Any part of North Tower it's where they send Medical and violent crimes and they are 2 man cells and on lockdown more often then not. When I went to the psych ward for claiming I was "suicidal" because I didn't want to be moved out of my 5K module to NVC they took me to 2B psych ward. Horrible. The 10 hours of free time was taken away to if we were lucky we would maybe MAYBE get 1 hour of free time out of our 10x10 cubicle that we share with another cell mate. The luxury of being in a big room was taken away to a 2 man cell with bunk beds another mate and a toilet with sink. Truly horrible. I wasn't crazy when I got there but by the time I left I was crazy. I still have PTSD of the psych ward and that 2 man cell and being trapped in that small small room with no where to go, the only option is laying in the uncomfortable wood bed with a mattress pad on it all day and reading to escape or staring out the window thinking to yourself that will be me standing outside again one day.
Big Shout Out to the COs Ms. Anderson "thank ya mam" and to Ms. G what's the G stand for? "I'm a fucking Gangsta" Ms. P and of course Ms. Butler. They were the most respectable COs that didn't power trip or fuck around. Thanks for helping me during my stay at CCDC. I won't be coming back.
