Pros:

Someone's old milk drink left in fridge on arrival; Shower floods the entire bathroom when used.
Barely enough room to walk around bed.
TV the size of a postage stamp and half the channels didn't work.
Had a guy foraging for cigarette buts and begging for cigarettes outside my room.
Yelling and screaming outside during the night
Just overall awful, will never stay here again

Pros:

I would rate this 2 star, bed uncomfortable, area a bit seedy. Had better stays for price! On flight path, no crockery or cutlery to speak of. Asked for room to be cleaned while we were out and not done
Good water pressure was probably tge upside
