Pros:

Close to all of the nicer hotels that I could have stayed at.

Cons:

The rooms were not clean they did not answer the phone. They didn't even have an ice bucket in there and they had to go find one for me because they don't offer them to people staying there anymore. The facilities were arrested and paint was peeling. There are more things but that's definitely a start.
