Cortez Stay

We arrived an hour earlier than check-in time and were able to check in. Room was spacious but the floor looked like it hadn't been cleaned well. Still dirty shoe prints. The AC was a nightmare. It was so noisy, we had to shut it off to be able to sleep. Sounded like a mixture of hail, popcorn popping and aluminum foil being crumbled. Some WD-40 will go a long way. Breakfast was good.

Front desk employee was great. The room was clean but after a few hours it smelled like cigarettes. It didnt feel too safe outside.seemed like some people were actually long term residents and not tourists. Too much commotion outside.
