Cons:

The customer service was very lacking. The front desk clerk was determined to keep our $100 damage deposit because of a few dog hairs and a couple specs of blood on a sheet.

Dirty pool and gym
Pros:

The manager was nice and understanding

Cons:

Before booking i asked if the pool was working and if they had a work out gym. I was told yes. Then at the front desk I asked again and was told yes however the pool was shut down and the gym all items were broken.

Pros:

Nothing in particular.

Cons:

We couldn’t rest for the noise.
Pros:

The breakfast was good

Cons:

We rented the room for two nights. We could not sleep because a dog was barking in the adjacent room. We could not rest at all.

I would advise others to pay a little more and enjoy their stay at another hotel.
Pros:

Location was the only good thing. Easy access off of I-40. The breakfast was good, not premade, microwave crap.

Cons:

Older building with make shift repairs then painted over. Obviously not done by a professional. Dog hair on the furniture. Noisy, could hear people walking in room above. Dining area too small for the number of people. Night and morning desk employees were unfriendly, and obviously bored with their jobs.

Pros:

It was close to I-40. We had everything we needed.

Cons:

The curtains on the windows were just sheers so someone could see through it from the outside. You couldn't close the curtains more than the sheers. When we checked out no one was at the desk so we left our key cards in a basket as instructed and we were supposed to receive an email with the receipt or invoice. We never received an email.
