Avoid at all costs. Reviews lie!!
Pros:

Nothing to like

Cons:

- I feel the reviews on booking.com are not accurate. I paid $200 to stay in a crack motel after a long flight. I don't think I could make it 12 hours in this place.
- it's horribly ugly and uninviting from the outside at night.
- there were tweakers hanging out in the parking lot
- the room and the hallways smell like smoke, weed and fast food. The room was no better
- the meager furniture is filthy
- no coffee in the room even though there's a coffee maker and everything else. Just a couple leftover sugars
- all of the surfaces are filthy. Light switches telephone clock radio. It feels like a crack motel
- other people mentioned bed bugs when I did a deep dive on the reviews. Sorry I missed that one! Everything's in the car now except to me. Horrible... A total nightmare beyond all, esp. when you're exhausted...

Pros:

Přístup personálu, fajn pokoj.

Cons:

Extrémně měkká matrace, byla jsem rozlámaná. A tedy snídani bych si představovala trochu iinak, než jen banán, mini jogurt, mini tortilu plněnou něčím podivným a přeslazeným koblížkem.

Not bad but certainly not a place I would stay again
Pros:

Price, location

Cons:

Cigarette smell in room, halls and room had another distasteful odor, I HATE bagged breakfasts, other guests smoke directly outside. Both marijuana and cigarette smoke was pulled into room by the air conditioner.
