Budget, friendly staff, check in and check out was easy.
Pros:

It was very safe to get in. You need a reservation to enter.

Cons:

The location, it isn't the safest but the way the building is with only a reservation or a key to get in, gave me a peace of mind.

Inexpensive relative to what else was available, and did what we needed it to do.
Pros:

Price and proximity to Summerfest (by car). Hard to rate this place because it depends what you r looking for, hence the 6.0. If u r looking for a luxury stay, this is not meant for you. If you are just looking for a place to bed down after walking the cement at Summerfest all day, then this can work for you. The bed was comfy, the ac worked, and Cheri the manager was friendly and accommodating. So it worked well for us.

Cons:

I coulda used a towel rack in the bathroom. 😆

A room/hotel that i needed to sleep in overnight, that met my needs and for an affordable solo price
Pros:

Room was clean, no odd odors in the room, comfy bed, working tv, clean bathroom, easy check in.

Cons:

Showers temperature nozzles were hard to adjust properly. The rooms walls are thin, but to be fair its an old building. It was challenging to sleep though due to either noises of other guests or people talking in the halls.

Fuyer
Cons:

Je ne me suis pas senti en sécurité. Ça fumais du pot a l'intérieur, beaucoup de va et viens et un soir il y a eu des coups de fusil tirés très près. Pas de sécurité la nuit. Quand j'ai redonner les clé il en a qui s'engueuler dans le corridor. J'ai pas compris pourquoi c'est coté aussi haut sur booking

Is not exactly a hotel, is a residency for daily cheap rent so people that goes there are usually suspicious, drug addic
Pros:

Distance from downtown no more than 15 minutes in public transport

Cons:

1. Smell cigarettes smoke all the time, the smell is overwhelming
2. There’s people upstairs that started to make weird noises and loud steps the whole nights, more than evident that they were high
3. Has weird rules related with security
4. Is not exactly a hotel, is a residency for daily cheap rent so people that goes there are usually suspicious, drug addicted or dealers

As with so many things, the rough exterior had to be penetrated to reveal the goodness within.
Pros:

Location easily accessible to downtown by public transportation. Room well furnished with brand new TV, fridge, microwave, and coffee maker, including ground coffee!

Cons:

Office only officially open until 6 pm ; after that you have to call and rouse the manager. To her credit she came out at 1 a.m. to check me in, but it was sketchy for sure. Best to arrive during business hours, and definitely let them know if you have a later arrival. Exterior quite worn. Upstairs rooms make a lot of noise in downstairs rooms just from walking around.
