Pros:

N/A

Cons:

The customer service was severely lacking. The woman at the front desk was very brash and ultimately unhelpful. The room was disturbingly filthy, complete with boogers on the wall. Not to mention, the chain lock was broken off the door and hanging.

Awful. Even tho the price was good. No hotel should be allowed to operate like this.
Pros:

Not much. The room was awful.

Cons:

You could not access the lobby at all! No coffee. None in the room either.The room was in poor condition. The AC was noisy. There was mold on ceilings and bathroom floor. The TV did not work. The chair had a stain that look like fecal matter. There were cigarette burns in carpet of our no-smoking room. The bed was hard and pillows were not good. There were no tissues and only 2 towels and 2 wash cloths supplied, so had to reuse in the morning. There was an ironing board, but no iron. The toilet paper holder was rusted and the walls, doors had paint patches and one wall was rippled as if the wallpaper had been wet.
