Oh
Pros:

Nothing because I wasn't able to stay in my room that I paid for

Cons:

I didn't like that the booking.com said there was no deposit and accepted my payment for the room and when I came to check in they told me I needed a deposit which I was able to afford and said that they wouldn't refund me . I really needed the room for the night and I am still working on getting my 90$ back

Location is a problem for this place, unless a way is found to quiet the neighborhood.
Pros:

Television had good selections available, set up with the different streaming channels that provide sufficient content. Noises between rooms was minimal. AC worked well. (too good actually). Clean room, good bedding. Hot (very hot) and cold running water. Microwave, refrigerator, and complimentary coffee available. Plenty of dressers and drawers to stow stuff

Cons:

The noise outside was incredibly loud even until 2 AM. Could not sleep due to gunshots, sirens, people screeching tires, and people being obnoxiously loud just to be loud. Poor location due to the behavior of the community surrounding the hotel. Vending machine for drinks was broken. Breakfast was just a poor selection of meal bars. Really, not a breakfast at all, just complimentary snacks. Bathroom had no lock and would not close. Shower hot/cold was tricky to adjust.

You get what you pay for
Pros:

Price was great. But I guess you get what you pay for.

Cons:

It looked clean until you looked deep. Idk if there were actually bugs under the beds of just bug shaped dirt... Then there was a cockroach in the bathroom
