Pros +

  • Perfect service breakfast yuppie
  • I didn't like anything.
  • The fact that it was close by where we were visiting

Cons -

  • The room had a very heavy smoked smell to it, and there were roaches inside
  • This is the first time I've seen cockroaches in a hotel. There were so many of them that they crawled all over my body. My child couldn't sleep all night because of this.
  • The bedrooms weren't clean but had no choice since I booked a reservation and was too late to travel back where I came from. The bed blankets were raggedy all torn up cigarette burns in the sheets hard bed mattress, cooling heating system looked damaged, mold on the window seals, writing all over the drawers, throw up on the outside sidewalk which was really gross, too many people hanging around some all drugged up and hunched over after using drugs, bad place to bring children or people that are trying to be in a positive environment. Trust me it was really bad I didn't complain about it but I promise that will be one place I will never go again. I should of taken pictures of everything that I saw was wrong with the place. You guys shouldn't put that your hotel is a 3 star hotel because no way I wouldn't even give it one star. Sorry to talk down on the place but Im just being honest. And yes I could of gone somewhere else but I trusted that you guys were decent by what it stated when I booked it that it was 3 star hotel which it's not.
