It was just horrific.
Pros:

The price a little bit.

Cons:

It was nasty, smelled like weed. Had to get on a janky phone to get someone to be available to check in. We left a day early just to get away from it.

Pros:

It had a big fridge, a sink,and a stove top. Had a nice chair and a business type chair.

Cons:

I originally booked through booking.com and got the room for 3 nights on the weekend for $80 including tax. I wanted to stay one more night and it wasn't through booking ,I thought I would just pay $80 again. We'll I got robbed! The person behind the counter charged me $84 then because there check in was at 3 pm got charged another $33.60 for the hours of 11am until 3 pm,never seen that happen. That was outrageous. Wound up pay $122 for that lone night. I WILL NEVER STAY IN ANOTHER ONE OF THESE PROPERTIES AGAIN! That's not how you take care of your customers. Outrageous!! Also you will never see the maid,not even for towels.
