Pros:

Good guess..i wanted my money back cause the non smoking room stank of smoke, eye lashes om the bed, feces stain on the towel, floor not swept and that was a 1st room.. they transferred us too a second room which had hair stuck on shower walls, never changed sheets..
The falling pieces of roofing was a hint.. like it's never been fixed and would look better if the place was in a horror movie.

Cons:

See above

It was very tidy and I enjoyed how quiet it was and overall had a good experience.
Pros:

It was clean and the person who checked us in was very friendly. I liked that it was close to gas stations and restaurants.

Cons:

There was only one towel in the bathroom so we had to ask for an extra towel. I had hoped for a coffee pot in my room. At the end of our stay even when checking in we told the the person at the front desk that we were getting late check out. The morning staff must’ve not been told because they knocked right at 11 to see if we were leaving. Told them again that we were doing late check out. 15 minutes later they knocked again to see if we were done. That was very frustrating.

Everything was great till that last day.
Pros:

I stayed there for a week. I liked it everything was great there was some really good staff.
I scheduled another day.
I was in the lobby on my computer. Guy.....Fahmcame out asked if I was staying there another day. I said yes. He said okay. I was waiting till check in as I had ran errands earlier that day and had left.
Then he tells me it's been canceled. After waiting an hour as the only person sitting in lobby?

I went to Hilton Garden Inn instead. Spent much more but absolutely fabulous.Still would have given 5 stars if wasn't for last day incident.

Cons:

Everything was great till that last day when he did this.

Please dont spend your money on this hotel
Pros:

The room was big

Cons:

I stayed for one night, but got no sleep at all. The walls are made from paper literally. It was noisy and could hear everything from outside and inside. I got zero sleep. I asked for the manager, but never got a call back.

This place is disgusting.
Pros:

Nothing didn't even end up staying the night as the room and hallways were disgusting.

Cons:

The room was gross the bed blankets were not clean full of hair and red stuff. The mattress and box spring were black in the corners. There were dead bugs lying on the floor near the wall. The carpet in the hall was wet so when we stepped into the room we I almost fell.

The room was clean but maintenance issues exist.
Pros:

Room was clean.

Cons:

When we walked in, it had an overwhelming perfume/cleaning odor. In our room, one of the lamps was missing the cover for both plugs. There was no plug in the bathroom sink.We had to wait for staff to check us in.
