Ants in the Bathroom
Pros:

The location

Cons:

It was not clean.
There was a swarm of ants in the bathroom area. When I told the front desk manager who barely spoke English he handed me some bug spray and walked away.
No follow up with us. No sorry. No nothing.

After we left they charged an extra 50 dollars to my card. When I called to get it refunded the man that answered the phone was not nice and refused to refund the 50 dollars.
He told me to F..k myself and called me a Mother F..ker and hung up.

My bank got my 50 dollars back for me.

Would never in a million years stay there again.

Stay away
Pros:

Close to ac

Cons:

The place tucked it was filthy the room stunk with chemical cleaner. Garbage was scattered all over outside with management doing nothing about it. An invitation for rats and rodents to come.Breakfast also sucked. Bagels were frozen and thawing on the platter and bathroom adjacent to eating area was filthy. Avoid this place or you just might e d up sick.
