Would only recommend for a quick stay over, no other reason.
Pros:

Friendly front desk associate.

Cons:

Room was outdated. Room rate (over $110.00) was too expensive for what was provided. Breakfast items were minimal.

Good price and good nights sleep before a convenient drive to CBX very early in the morning.
Pros:

We left before breakfast so no score there. After reading the poor reviews, we were reluctant to stay here but the other CBX airport hotels were full. That said, we were pleasantly surprized by the kind check-in, decent parking and the room was much better than we expected. Easy nights sleep, bathroom was clean, water pressure and hot water were both just fine.

Cons:

Older hotel with minimal extras.

You get what you pay for.
Pros:

Room rate - was very affordable

Cons:

Location: there is a lot of homeless people in the area. Also, the free breakfast was not great but it is free so I shouldn’t complain actually.
