Pros:

Not much went well really, the only good thing is that at check in the front desk lady waived the $50 fee. It was also in a decent location.

Cons:

There were roaches in the room and the lock on our door didn't work properly. We didn't really feel safe or clean staying here.

Terrible
Pros:

We didn't even get to stay here, because we couldn't get the hotel room dor open. We tried 2 different rooms and then the person working there told me that there was nothing else she could do. Would not recommend.
