Bad
Pros:

Good location

Cons:

I didn't like that there wasn't a top lock on our door. The parking lot was horrible and dirty. I got a roofing screw in my brand new tire from a maintenance truck parked a couple of spaces down. Couldn't get anyone that worked there to come to the main lobby desk to talk about it or to answer any of our questions in general .

Pros:

I didn't stay there. I checked out the same day me and family arrived. The room was dirty, flies where laing on the bed, water would come out from the floor due to the ac, walls and doors like no one has ever cleaned it before. Still haven't got my refund back.

TAKE MY ADVICE AND LET ME SAVE YOU SOME TIME/HASSLE...DON'T STAY HERE
Pros:

The lady at the desk was sweet. She was running the entire hotel by herself, so we had to always wait for her when we needed help.

Cons:

The room was nasty. The doors were very gross. Hole in the wall. Cigarette holes in the sheets. Hairs on the sheets. TV remote was broke. The phone wouldn't work. Smelt like Marijuana. Loud music from people below us. Knowing how many people were staying, they still only left a few towels and wrags. It didn't take long at all, and we requested our refund and went elsewhere. I didn't want to touch anything. We didn't feel safe at all, not only from germs but other people (environment) as well. I highly do NOT recommend this place. I HIGHLY DO NOT RECOMMEND STAYING HERE!!!! Also, the indoor pool and laundry room was out of service.
