Nothing I haven't already expanded on in the comments sections
Pros:

I liked the fact that I could get the kids the hell out of there for the day and that we only spent 2 nights. I'm sorry. The kids did like the pool but I think it was because that's where they felt clean and safe 😀

Cons:

How much time do you have to read this? I didn't like the cockroach swimming in the dirty on the floor. The toothpaste in the sink from the previous guest. The public trash cans by my room door. The stains on the sheets. No towels. $40 for a "Room Cleaning" fee. I mean, basically everything that other guests have been saying for the last 5 years. READ THE REVIEWS PEOPLE. I DIDN'T.

We didn’t stay and the guy threatened us and told us we couldn’t get a refund.
Pros:

Absolutely nothing

Cons:

Everything. The roaches running around when I opened the door to walk in. I shut the door right away. Why would I bring my stuff in there and let my 1 year old baby in a room like that. The beds were not made. The stove was crazy. The hotel has never been cleaned. When I arrived he charged me another $50 even though I already paid $160 online and then I went to get in my room and saw and just broke down crying. I have a baby I don’t live like that. The pictures online were clean and nice.
