Breakfast buffet was good, not great. Bed comfortable.

Cons:

Shower leaked out onto bathroom floor.
Electrical outlets were limited by the bed.
No end table on one side of bed
Only one lamp between the two beds
Breakfast buffet limitations -- fruit options, no yogurt

Would not recommend this hotel and suggest you scratch it off your list
Pros:

Location was close to where I was at

Cons:

There was bugs in the room and some were coming up out of the sink
Also When I called the place to make sure that they were king beds in the room they told me yes but when we got there, there was only queens or they look smaller than me

Also, I paid for an upgrade and you guys charge me $4.91 but when I got to the hotel, they didn’t show it in their system and they didn’t show that they were paid for it

Two of my guests that were staying with me left because of the bad conditions so I had to refund them their money for half of the room

I would appreciate if I could get a refund of about 50% for the inconvenience

Thank you

Reeks of Chemicals
Pros:

The room was clean for the most part. The overall atmosphere was good and clean.

Cons:

The entire building reeked of bleach and other chemicals. There is a pool but the upstairs smelled more like bleach and other chemicals than it did down stairs. There were many areas of the room with large amounts of dust and places that had obviously not been properly cleaned in a very long time. The room also reeked of various chemicals and had a strong Marijuana smell.

Pros:

Cons:

Woke up in the middle of the night to the smell of marijuana and immediately packed my belongings and, reported the situation to the front desk and asked for a refund. I also noticed after the fact that there was another review left about this as well.
