Didn’t stay, went to another hotel.
Pros:

Not much.

Cons:

Not as pictured. Smelled of urine in the lobby and hallway. We did not stay here. Not fit for a family with small children.

Pros:

We ended up not staying, so there isn't anything that I can say that we liked.

Cons:

We walked into our room and we were instantly met with the smell of cigarette smoke. The covers on our bed looked like they hadn't been washed in weeks. We had no TV, no phone, the floor was dirty, the bathroom sink wouldn't drain properly. We did not feel safe or comfortable. We were in town for a concert since it was a 3 hour drive, we used the hotel room to change clothes and put make up on, we made sure not to even sit on the beds for fear of bed bugs. Once we were ready, we left. I was going to tell the lady at the front desk, however there was a line and we didn't want to be late to the concert. We ended up driving back home after the concert, with it being a 3 hour drive, we did not get home until 3am, but at least my kids got to enjoy the concert, although they were extremely upset about not being able to stay at a hotel. To top it off, I emailed the hotel about my issues and asked for a refund, this was on Saturday, and I still haven't gotten a response.

We didn’t end up staying. Currently trying to get my money back.
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

There was a cop sitting outside when we got there. The place smelled like urine. The hallway carpet was filthy and stained. The room was filthy and dirty. Floors were sticky. It was gross! We don’t feel safe staying there. Bookings should not have this hotel on their options to stay.

Pros:

Had two different rooms.. foray room had no working ac, smelled like cheese, refrigerator did not work and there was the previous guests food still in the microwave. We had what used to ve a balcony, it was sealed shut and painted black on the outside. Asked to go to a different room, we moved our stuff and immediately was greeted by a cockroach on the floor. Took shoes and socks off and our feet ended up black and caked with dirt. Used the towel to clean up the floor and asked for new towels and was yelled at for cleaning the floors. You definitely get what you paid for here. And I don't even want to talk about the neighborhood. Iron bars and bullet proof glass on literally on every building. Thank god it was just me and my husband I would not feel comfortable bringing our daughters here. BTW, absolutely no locks on either of the doors we had.
