Pros:

Nothing other than it was close to the freeway.

Cons:

Where do I start!? The front desk clerk was a long haired hippie kid that wreaked of marijuana. He barely said a word as he checked us in. The hotel itself literally needs to be shut down by the health department! There is mold in the windows and sills, halways wreak of cigarette smoke and marijuana, carpets looked like they havnt been cleaned in 20 years, the room was a non smoking one but still wreaked of weed and cigarettes, and lastly the free breakfast is non existent. Someone threw some white bread in a box and there are two sugary cereals. No fruit, eggs, waffles, muffins, etc!!!! We will never stay here again!

Cons:

Breakfast was really lacking.
Pool had so many ants and bugs in it I wouldn't dare get in it.
The smell of weed was so strong throughout the halls and outside I didn't want my grandchildren coming to visit me.

Pros:

The rooms were clean up, the bedroom was surprisingly large for a hotel of this price and the bed was incredibly comfortable.

Cons:

The elevator as far as I'm aware, it's only two stories but it is also only stairs.

Peut mieux faire
Cons:

Vétuste. Le mobilier est ancien et mérite d’être conservé car il a un certain style mais il devrait être remis en état.
La chambre sentait l’humidité.
L’air conditionné est déficient.
Bref, un petit coup de neuf est souhaitable
