Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
The first words the desk guy said to me were "We can't guarantee there will be hot water, and if you want a refund you'll have to take it up with Expedia." Room was dirty with cockroaches and holes in the walls. Do yourself a favor and spend a few extra dollars to stay somewhere better. Plus side is that our dog stayed for free and the bed was comfortable.
