Clean up your facility
Pros:

The location that was about it

Cons:

The booking didnt inform us of renovations being done on the facility otherwise probably wouldn't have booked here also the mattress was less comfortable than sleeping on the floor which is what me and my wife had to do because of the springs in our backs the facility claimed to be smoke free but our room reeked of cigarettes and the TV was busted thankfully we didnt really have much use for the amenities( that were in poor condition anyways) due to the fact we were more focused on attending a concert in town and that was where we spent most of our time but for the little time we were there my wife and I were not impressed hopefully they get their renovations done and the rooms cleaned up because right now I wouldn't recommend them to my worst enemy

Do Not Stay Here
Pros:

We had a bed to sleep in

Cons:

We got an email a couple weeks ago that there would be construction at the establishment. They did not tell us that the pool and continental breakfast would be closed, which are 2 of the biggest reasons we booked this hotel. We found this out when we checked in. The whole building was hot and smelled like marijuana. When we got to our room, it was 90 degrees in there. Also, there was no light bulb in the entryway to our room. The smoke detector was missing from the wall. The carbon monoxide detector was high up (should be at eye level when sleeping). One of the pillowcases was dirty. The shower curtain was barely long enough to reach the tub therefore soaking the floor when the shower was running. There was a hole in the wall where the door hinge would hit the wall when opened (there before we got there). Overall, not happy with this hotel at all. The only thing the guy at the desk could do when we checked out was give us $15 off. I have emailed the manager, too.

Pros:

We needed to extend our stay, they charged me an hourly rate instead of making us pay for another night.

Cons:

No pool, or breakfast. I booked at best western and stayed at grand select. Everything was under renovation. So I didn't get what I paid for.

The price you pay should give you a decent hint of your expectations
Pros:

It was near a McDonald's, pizza hut, and gas station. The beds were firm. The guy at the front desk was helpful in changing out the equipment so we could watch TV.

Cons:

Apparently for over 7 months the facilities were all closed, no breakfast, no pool, and it took 3 hours to be able to watch TV. (2 TV's and 2 routers later). Plus someone left their old milk in our fridge. And we had to connect our own phone line that was in the room to be able to call the front desk. And it takes 10 minutes to get hot water for your shower.

Nothing short of horrendous.
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

In the lobby bathroom there was no toilet paper and paper towels on the floor with feces. The fire alarm in the room was removed. The toilet dirty. Headboard and dressers scratched. Room smelled. Could smell cigarette and marijuana in the halls. For $400 a night it was horrible!

Abysmal.
Pros:

Nothing.

Cons:

We ended up not even staying after check in. It smelled of sewage and smoke. Was informed of fire damage upon arrival. There was no pool or breakfast as advertised. I did not feel safe staying there. It was completely false advertising. This whole thing put a damper on our trip and we ended up switching to a different hotel. Customer service has been terrible and has not responded to me or booking.com to help rectify this for me and my family.
