It was horrible
Pros:

What breakfast with all the roaches I wouldn't eat crap from this place

Cons:

Roaches in room.it smells really bad. The linens haven't been washed or changed in months. Room had no smoke detectors in it. The front door had a Crack the size of the San Andres fault. You could see outside. I took the chairs and put in front of the door. And slept with my gun cocked and loaded. I think booking.com needs to take them off there site.
