Pros. You cannot stay that close to AC for any cheaper. The adage you get what you pay for is true tho.

Pros. Beds were comfy.

Cons. The table lamps and the other light were out, the room smelled like sweaty guys, stains on the walls, water tasted like rust, the extra cot was broken before we came into the room. Got a family room and wasn't like the picture. Needs hotel impossible. Never again.

Cons. When we arrived we went to go check in but waited for at least 5 minutes to be attendeded, when we where finally atteneded to they took a very long time to give us our key. When we got to our room we couldn't help but notice the rotten smell of cigarettes ( in a smoke-free room) and the scent of a backed up toilet. The floors where also very dusty and dirty. When I went to go use the bathroom the floor felt like it was ready to cave in, the toilet looked dirty as did the tub. I personally did not want to shower due to the condition that the bathroom was in and at a point was grossed out. The bathroom looked as if it hadn't been cleaned in weeks and both the tub and toilet had black marks from the lack of cleaning. That's not all though, I also found a blood stain on my bed, a cockroach on the floor, the pillowcases where also very dirty. Also the "complementary" breakfast doesn't come with the room, you actually have to pay $1.25 for a cup of coffee and a cheese danish that you could buy at a gas station. Another complain i have is that the tv doesnt come with a channell guide so for those of you unfimiliar with the cable provider than you will have a tough time navigating the channels, not only did it not come with a guide but the remote barely worked. There was virtually nothing good about this hotel excelt for the location. Overall I strongly recommend that noone stays here due to the poor condition on which the rooms where in. Also the room is not worth the money that we paid, save your money and spend it on a nicer hotel that actually bothers cleaning the rooms.
