ICE agents unveiled a completely refurbished detention center three hours north of the Rio Grande Valley that offers accommodation comparable to a Hilton Hotel, well, at least an Embassy Suites, okay, maybe a Days Inn..
The Karnes City center will house women and children who entered the country illegally through the Valley.

The 532-bed facility underwent a massive renovation to house women and children. The center housed only adult immigrants in the past. Immigrants will be at the facility for an average of 23 days. The feds said the immigrants will be referred to as “residents” and the rooms as “suites.” The suites are furnished with flat-screen television sets and landline telephones. The center has a soccer field covered with artificial turf, ping pong tables and a weight room. source
A charter school nearby will provide schooling and access to a library for the immigrant children.
