Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

I wouldn’t know how it is at this hotel since the manager book the wrong location and won’t give my money back so he is a crook and a thief. The manager book this reservation for me but I was in Ontario Canada and he booked it for Michigan United States knowing I’m in Canada and I don’t have
my passport with me. I tried to get in contact with him but they will not answer my calls this place are theives
