DECEPCIONADA
Pros:

La ubicación

Cons:

La cama incómoda y pequeña, sin shampoo, las toallas muy muy pequeñas, promueven alberca y la tienen fuera de servicio., y no te dan descuento, o alguna disculpa por ello.

I want my money back
Pros:

It wasn’t far from my destination, had plenty of parking because they didn’t have a lot of guests and I wasn’t charged a deposit.

Cons:

It was filthy, the guests were smoking meth downstairs, there were roaches in my room, the toilet was dirty at the bottom, shower was extremely small, the repairs looked like a gingerbread house, the phones didn’t work and they didn’t have buttons and the bed was not comfortable. It was old and had handles at the center of each end that I kept hitting. Also the heater didn’t work and it looked really old. I hadn’t noticed until I turned it on and smelled burning hair and then it stopped working.

I will never return here at this location or destination.
Pros:

Nothing at all. The staff was not friendly or helpful at all. I will never return there ever again.

Cons:

I did not get to enjoy my stay. Or even had the opportunity to sleep in the room because the staff was completely not professional or helpful.
