Pros:

Absolutely nothing!

Cons:

The room was beyond filthy as soon as I cut the lights on roaches just came rushing at me like an army! Mind you before I gave my credit card information to the manager I asked, do you have roaches! His replied was no! I told him I have a phobia against roaches! I should have my money back in full! He lied saying there wasn't roaches and I could not lay down to go to sleep because I couldn't get another room being that they had a convention or something going on that I wasn't aware of! This place is disgusting and I'm going to call DHEC first thing in the morning and report it! They need to be closed down immediately! I started to call my lawyer! If I would have stayed in Alabama one more day I would have called the news station to exploit these people!!

Pros:

Price was too good to be true

Cons:

I killed 5 roaches within 1 hour so I ended up leaving around midnight and driving to a truck stop to sleep in my car. Not to mention the shower wasn't clean.
