Unsafe, dirty, did not stay here
Pros:

The location was convenient to the Harbor center, that is ALL.

Cons:

I did not stay here and am awaiting a refund. The second floor is cordoned off and signs posted on all doors, looks like those rooms may be condemned, there was furniture and small refrigerators strewn about the parking lot abd walkways, the bed had dirty sheets and bedding, cracked shower and almost no furniture, not even a chair at the desk. It was a disaster and I did NOT feel safe, plus the young man who checked me in seemed more interested in his phone than being at all helpful.

There was no stay! I PAID for a room with Cockroaches. Rented elsewhere and no refund given for this
Pros:

There is nothing to like! Cockroaches were in that room! Did not stay. Rented ELSEWHERE! No refund given by Booking.com

Cons:

Cockroaches prevented me from staying there! I paid for a room that I could not stay in due to cockroach presence and that's a health hazard. I had to pay and rent a room at another location which did not have cockroaches. Booking.com has not returned my money for services not rendered!

Pros:

Rooms are decent for a motel that is for a budget, would be better if each room had coffee pot, microwave and mini fridge. Some rooms have a mini fridge and some rooms have a microwave. However there is a microwave in the hall next to the ice machine so you can still prepare or reheat meals. I would stay again but be better prepared the next time.

Cons:

Hit or miss on amenities such as fridge and microwave. No coffee pot available

Pros:

This property was scary and it felt unsafe. There were signs for human trafficking. It had a very seedy quality to it.

The worst hotel I've ever been in.
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

This was the worst hotel I've ever been in my life. It had the worst smell ever. Even the toilet wasn't secured to the floor. We checked out as soon as we checked in. We expect a full refund.

It was ok.
Pros:

Bed was comfortable.

Cons:

When entering room wall switch did not turn any lights on. Difficult to get a light on in the middle of the night when needing the bathroom.
