Pros:

Nothing at all

Cons:

Everything This hotel was a horrible experience from the moment we arrived. There were people sitting on the curb right in front of the property, which immediately made us uncomfortable. As soon as we walked in, the hallways smelled strongly of cigarettes and mildew. It was nothing like the description online.

We booked a room with a queen-size bed, but instead we were given a room with two full-size beds. The room itself was not what we expected at all.

The "complimentary breakfast" was actually just a grab-and-go option, and when we went to get breakfast, they didn't even have any coffee available.

To make matters worse, when we tried to rest, the guests upstairs were extremely noisy and obnoxious—stomping around and making a lot of noise.

Overall, this was a terrible experience. I would rate this place 0/10 and will definitely not be returning.

fair conditions for a quick one night stay
Pros:

Spacious room. Bed is comfortable. The guy who checked me in at about 10:30pm was very friendly. And he knows what he was doing, very helpful.

Cons:

Our room slept 3 people but only 2 sets of towels. A new guy at the front desk at 1am said the hotel ran out of towel. Then the next morning, the coffee ran out too before 9:30am. The lady at the front desk said she does not want to cook more because the breakfast closes at 9:30am.

There is no open area for a group gathering.

The carpet in the hotel hallway has a musty smell.

Nope. Plenty of other places in the area.
Pros:

We only stayed two nights. If it had been longer I would have sought out a neighboring hotel for the remainder of our visit.

Cons:

The "breakfast" was two coffee urns, with some prepackaged muffins and high fructose corn syrup bars. The desk staff was bored and inattentive. The property confirmed a request in writing and then when asked to fulfill the request staff told me booking.com lied take it up with them. There's not enough electric outlets and we had to hunt for them. We found seed husks from previous tenants under the bedside table and a power strip. There are zero USB outlets. The refrigerator was dirty on the exterior and repaired with duct tape on the interior. The stove is old and rusted in places. The shower enclosure had literal mildew. The hallways and walls were dirty and not well maintained.

Cons:

The room had a strong urine-like smell from the moment I walked in, which was unacceptable. They also advertised breakfast, but at 8 AM there was nothing available except coffee and a muffin. Very disappointing
