For a quick stay it'll do. Don't stay there for a long time. You may end up in the A/C.
Pros:

Location. Price. Free breakfast. It was ok. That's about it.

Cons:

The room smelled musty like it hadn't been used in a year. The A/C sounded like it was grinding children's bones all night. The fan in the bathroom was grinding the pieces that the A/C missed. The TV had no ability to download streaming apps or cast from my phone. I literally had to screen share streaming from my phone. How old is the TV lol?
