I had FUN
Pros:

I was there for the BTS concert!

I met Alicia at front desk! She is also an army and she was so sweet and amazing. I chatted with her for forever and gave her freebies. She really made the stay even better. All the staff were nice. they were kind about the influx of armys in April and we're curious and willing to hear our experience about the whole tour and I think that distinctly separates Quality Inn from probably other accommodation options. My room was spacious, clean , cool, lighting was great! the bathroom was great as well and stocked with everything i would have possibly needed. I'm really happy about the added breakfast as well. felt great to not have to worry about where I should go to fill up. When I'm back in the States I'll definitely always look forward to seeing Quality Inn as an option <3

Cons:

I can't say! like I had nooooo problems!

Great stay.
Pros:

We came in for a cruise so we only stayed for one night. Overall everything was good with our stay. The hotel was clean. The room was clean and we were comfortable. The hotel is located in a good location not too far from the port. There was a continental breakfast which was convenient so we didn't have to get food or leave for the cruise hungry.

Cons:

Not the hotels fault but there were some very loud people walking through the halls late being extremely loud.

Wont be back ever!
Cons:

The air freshener smell was awful in the front lobby! Over powered whatever was trying to be covered up. Bad for asthmatic ppl.
The pool should have been shut down. It was green with algae and no pool pump working. Gross!!!! The grounds were filthy.
Breakfast had poor choices for a FREE continental, it was the very bare minimum.

We would definitely stay here again.
Pros:

From the moment we walked in the door we were met with friendly staff, clean facilities, updated rooms, and a really nice campus and pool. The breakfast was also very good, especially the waffles! It was right next to the freeway, which is convenient.

Cons:

The encampment outside while we were driving in made us feel unsafe. They weren't on campus - they do a good job of keeping them away. We almost cancelled because of this. But once we got inside we felt safe.

overall a great place to stay
Pros:

breakfast was very good. Tables were clean and staff was very helpful. Enjoy being able to sit with family and friend and eat and have coffee.

Cons:

there was a hooker in the lobby waiting for company. Very friendly lady. she rents room for the weekend and meets her clients. How do I know we had to speed a great deal of time in the lobby waiting for our family to arrive from the airport and it was raining and we could not stay at the pool. Very friendly lady. Not what we were expecting to see.
Also, we paid 55 dollars for parking and Suttle to cruise ship, The trip over was great. The trip back to hotel took 1hour and a half waiting on the curb for the van to return for the 2nd load of our family. don't know what happened but he was late.
