Never again. Will spend the extra money.
Pros:

It looked fine from the outside and is a fine place to stay if you’re in an ABSOLUTE pinch.

Cons:

We walked in the room and immediately started looking for another hotel. It had a weird musty smell mixed with cigarette smoke. Pretty sure there was blood spatter on the Ceiling. Had an itching sensation that may have been in our minds, but maybe not..

Our door was warped. It would close but wouldn’t lock and you could see light through the gaps. The airport is directly next door so the plans fly maybe 300 feet over the building. The pot smoke from neighbors was coming right in our room

It’s a waste of money to stay here. I ask for a refund as I only spent one night and they refused 😡
Pros:

Just the location.

Cons:

The environment, the building needs renovation, beds are not so comfortable and the comforter is like plastic, room has a bad odor and they need some new towels because the ones that are there don’t look clean.

Families should not stay here.
Pros:

The pool water appeared okay.

Cons:

This property was not clean. We booked 2 rooms last minute to be local for a sports tournament. One room had very questionable smudges on the walls. 3 roaches were found in the other. That same room had a weird sewage smell wafting into the room from time to time. The other room stunk of weed. There were definitely shady dealings going on outside. The noise levels were out of a control until well after midnight. A dog was barking 2 doors down from about 9pm to midnight. There was a lot of garbage present throughout the location. We thought about sleeping in the car instead bc of the lack of cleanliness, but didn’t feel it was safe enough. Total rip off for what we paid.

Unless you want to clean and supply your own room, go somewhere else. Room is so not worth 220.00 per night.
Pros:

Loved 1 of the maids super attentive and helpful

Cons:

The price of our room went from being 80 to 100 dollars a night , to 220 dollars with no advanced notice at all. We had stayed long term and expected better service from them. They really aren’t customer friendly
