Just don’t

First room we were put in was supposed to be non smoking, it smelled awful, definitely had been smoked in and was so dirty. Second room smelled musty, carpets were dirty, there were ants in the room, beds were so incredibly uncomfortable. And to top it off, we had to pay double what they normally charge. Still want to cry about it.

Room was clean, the all white bedding was very clean and comfortable, and the breakfast was hot and offered variety. We arrived on during a rainstorm and the room had a dank smell, like an old house smell which was not pleasant. Once we opened it up and warmed it up, it improved. It was fine for one night close to the airport.

The hotel was ok. It probably used to be quiet nice, but over time has become a little less so. The room was decent, although humid. It's near the airport so the planes were audible, but not enough to wake us from our sleep. Only a handful of TV channels, and breakfast was pretty good but the same every day.
