Never again
Pros:

Only good thing was it was cheap and near our concert destination

Cons:

People sitting outside their room's smoking, I think they are permanent residents making us uncomfortable to even get out of our car. Office was unattended for check-in and a note was left to call a number for someone to check us in.
The whole place smelled of pot.
Breakfast may have been the same food for the last year mini Bagels and a tub of cream cheese. The coffee creamer was in silverware wrappings and was rock hard in the packs.

Disgusting bug infested “hotel.”
Cons:

This was a hotel nightmare. To even get to our room on the second floor we had to go through multiple hallways. Our hallway reeked so badly of cat pee and dog that there were wax melts plugged in and set outside of the doors to “mask” the scent. Our room had bug crawling on the walls and we found at least 3 cockroaches in the room as well. At 2:45 at night, someone pounded on our door for 15 minutes. Our room had a TV, but there was no remote and it was stuck on a true crime channel. The office had TWO phone numbers written down in case guests needed anything. . . we called both numbers and never heard from the staff at all. This place was grimy and gross and I’m thankful I’ll never have to stay again
