This was a different type of stay. The hotel was a bit nasty looking, but they have tried to update it to be respectable (and it was). Just hard to get past the the kicked in doors, stains on wall, and rough neighborhood area. If this was in a small town, I would say it was as expected. Being in Dallas, I would have stayed elsewhere for $15 more. Just the description was off... this is a not an above 8.0 ranking... more 7.0. They did good in the remodle, but you expect NICE when you book above 8.0 rated hotels and this was below NICE.
