Enjoyed My Stay
Pros:

Comfortable room. Front desk staff were great. Location was minutes from the airport and plenty of restaurants and stores very close.

Cons:

Neighborhood was a little rough. It's not a reflection on the hotel because the property itself was safe.

Good for a one night stay, but wouldn’t stay longer.
Pros:

Very good place for an overnight stay. Kitchen was available in room which was great.

Cons:

The shower was very low for someone 6ft tall. And the pressure was pretty extreme. The tub filled to your ankles with water every time we showered. Also was disappointed to find out there’s no ice machine at the location.

Cons:

I think the hotel was filled with a lot of locals that live there. I noticed mailboxes. And the overall vibe was not one that was filled with travelers like me. When I asked if breakfast was available, I was informed no, but I could grab a banana on the way out in the front desk pointed me to one bunch of very green bananas. The room itself was fine and the bed was comfortable, but just did not like the overall atmosphere. Also, the location appeared to be a pretty low socioeconomic area, which is not what I expected. I paid $176 which was really not worth what I experienced.

It was great
Pros:

I loved the room and the location of the motel. The staff was wonderful.

Cons:

I have asthma so the use of feather pillows was a problem. I used them but I had a hard time breathing and had to use my inhaler more than usual.

Good for a quick trip at a reasonable cost
Pros:

The hotel is tucked away from the hustle and bustle. A good spot for where we were visiting and close to shopping for essentials and restaurants. I appreciated the room size, the bathroom size, and the availability of the kitchenette.

Cons:

The staff was helpful and friendly. The hotel hallways and common areas are under remodel which took away from the "comfort" level. It would have been nice to be notified of the renovation in advance when booking the stay.

Acceptable but could have been better
Pros:

The bed was comfortable and it was a suite so we had a refrigerator

Cons:

The recliner was very old and the seat was broken so it tipped to the back
The tile around the toilet was all loose and the toilet felt like it was going to fall thru the floor because the floor was lower at the toilet
The carpet smelled, there was a bad old oder combined with the paint smell was not very pleasant
