Won't be back
Pros:

Clean

Cons:

The guy that works the night looks like he was Indian or Mexican, didn't give me what I paid for the first time, and it took him a long time to ring me up.

Hotel very strict and very outdated
Pros:

The first thing is as I tried to cancel and they told me I couldn’t cancel, but they would try their best to accommodate me. They told me I could check in earlier, but when I arrived, they told me that I could only check in at three, which is not what they told me over the phone. The people are extremely rude. The hotel is extremely outdated. My soap in my room is expired. It was supposed to be from 2013 and it only was good for 13 months they make you pay a bunch of ridiculous fees. The only good part about this trip was the breakfast. And this really sweet lady named Cecilia she was very kind and greeted everyone that came in
