In desperate need of an outdoors cleanup!
Pros:

Location

Cons:

The property was rundown and in desperate need of a refresh. There was trash everywhere around the outside. I don’t remember the last time I saw so many cigarette butts.

Overall, after fully cleaning and having air fresheners throughout room myself, it was better.
Pros:

Front desk is nice and helpful.
Free Wi-Fi is slow.
Nights are quiet.
Location was great for my job during the stay.

Cons:

Room was clean but not fully cleaned:
- Spiderweb in corners
- Tub not clean and full of long hair
- Scent of smoke was strong
- Updating the furniture is not a bad idea
- Outside could be more clean and welcoming

The smell of cigarettes was overwhelming.
Pros:

The woman at the desk was so kind and lovely, she did explain the place is in the middle of an upgrade and had changed owners.

Cons:

The room was dark and dinghy, it absolutely reeked of cigarette smoke. When I left my clothes were still smelling of cigarettes until I washed everything. I was only in the room a short time.

Cigarette butts absolutely everywhere outside. Everything looks old and tattered.
Cost over $100 a night which is unbelievable for the age and environment of the room. It needs a lot of work to upgrade the space, not just a larger tv.
