Horrible
Pros:

Had to get refund: liked nothing.

Cons:

The first room, the door was open before we went in, it appeared as though someone was sleeping in the bed because the pillows were propped up. We went out and came back and the bathroom had water all over the floor as if someone was using it. They charged us room and there was cockroaches in restroom and bugs on the floor coming out of wall.

Stay for 2 nights
Pros:

Front desk employees were awesome, exceptional, accommodated request to move rooms. Pet stay is free.

Cons:

Shower head in room first night was leaking and shooting water everywhere. Parking lot in back at night had many sketchy people hanging out, noisy. I stayed here in 2019, didn't see that then to the degree it happened this time.
