Pros +

Location and price.
The staff was great to have around and talk to! Shout out to hotel employee, made great suggestions and overall just a great lad.
Decent lockers.

Cons -

No air conditioning and overall poor ventilation in the pod rooms. It was very stuffy and hot in there even when the common areas and outside temperature were rather pleasant.
It was pretty hot in the rooms even when it was 55-40 degrees out, a little tight in the rooms as well Im 5'8 so if youre taller than that good luck feeling comfortable
The dorm room smelled awful. An unclean/unwashed sort of smell. Outlet/usb plug in my bunk was loose and hanging from it's wiring. Bathrooms and showers were equally dirty and poorly maintained as the dorm room.
