I recommend you remove this listing from your site.
Pros:

There was no breakfast available. Thankfully, we did not pay for one, though the booking stated breakfast was included.

Cons:

People were partying and playing loud music from their cars until 11 pm. These cars were not there in the morning, so I do not believe they had rooms there.

Pros:

Absolutely nothing

Cons:

The area is dangerous, I went to check in on arrival and the lobby was locked. The clerk swiped my credit card to pay and gave me my room key. I went to the room and it smelled of mildew and cigarette smoke. I immediately returned to the lobby to complain and leave. I asked for a refund and the clerk told me to contact the manager on Monday.. I will be calling today to attempt to get my money back or will dispute the credit card charge with the bank.

true local's motel with local activities
Pros:

The ONLY thing I liked was how close in proximity it was to restaurants, shopping stores, and the main attractions.

Cons:

The cleanliness was poorest I've ever seen. The type of activities in and around at all hours of the night and day was uncomfortable. No pool, No breakfast, unable to use lobby. Items missing from room- unable to iron or make coffee. It was not worth the price. Save up for better rooms. Do not always go cheap. You get what you DID NOT pay for.
