It was a very dirty and a bit scary. Also no elevator.
Pros:

Nothing. There were absolutely no other vacancies and a small, dirty room cost $460.

Cons:

Beds had hair
Dirty floors and they were sticky
Dirty shower
No elevator for older adults

The room was larger than expected, but seemed like a long stay room for escorts.
Pros:

I liked the price considering the other hotels and motels were about 50 more per night. The size of the room was plenty big enough for my self and 4 children.

Cons:

The room seemed to have been still under repairs. It smelled like smoke and sex. Which quickly went away once the air conditioner came on. The shelf was falling off the wall.

Cons:

Folks smoking pot directly outside both entrances. Inside decor with unfinished paint, door safety chain loose and missing 2 screws, bed had 2 long sheetrock screws that did not secure to back wall. Outside light was out going into side door leading upstairs to room 220.
