To have a bathroom or to share a bathroom among 6 other rooms is a question.
Pros:

It was very clean and the beds were comfortable.

Cons:

That there was a hidden cost outside of the booking.com value of having a personal bathroom inside the room for an extra 15.00 along with the 10.00 refundable charge for any damage or late check out fee. The total of 61.20 and the other costs cost me 86.20 for 1 night and I used the shower once.

I never stated it was so bad.. it smell of mold and I told the front desk it did.
Pros:

Nothing I didn’t he even stay in the room it smell like mold
and had a bloody towel on the bathroom floor.. the hotel was cheap but it should have been 20. The front desk person knew the place smelled because he offered me air fresheners…

Cons:

and had a bloody towel on the bathroom floor.. the hotel was cheap but it should have been 20. The front desk person knew the place smelled because he offered me air fresheners… I didn’t even stay there nor did I get my money back. I think jail conditions are better than this hotel. I told the front desk guy I was allergic to mold and he yells out no refund lol… good God… closed the darn place down

Pros:

I liked the room I upgraded to stay in. You get what you pay for. What I didn’t like is that the office clerk tried to RIP me off and give me back a $20 deposit when I had left $40. After a while of reminding him of the amount that was left, he gave me my missing $20. That really rubbed me the wrong way.

Pros:

Not clean. Everything was dirty. Zero window screens on the second floor. Roaches. Bed linen dirty. I didn’t even get under the sheet. I threw my person blanket on time of the covers. Man tried to finesse me for an extra $20 in case talking about “security deposit” and didn’t give me a receipt and then got an attitude when I said I’m taking a picture of the transaction. So yeah I would rather sleep in my car.

It was excellent. Better than the picture we saw.
Pros:

The room space and bed was nice.

Cons:

I know it seems it getting remodel but would be nice if the shower tub did get clogged.
