Hammering & renovation noise in AM; Unacceptable!
Beware: Hotel is under renovation, and nobody seems to be on top of anything. We got back to our room after midnight. A sign on the front door said that it is locked after hours and to use the side door instead. A sign on the side door said that THAT door is locked after hours and to use the front door. The back door wouldn't take my keycard. Eventually a night manager (?) saw us and let us in through the side door, which he said is the door that should be used right now. He seemed unaware that the two entrances had signs providing conflicting information. The bedside outlets provided only very loose connections. I sleep with a medical device, which had trouble staying in the outlet until I propped up the plug to hold it the socket. Worst of all though: we were woken up early in the morning by the sounds of constant hammering and other construction noises! I know the place is undergoing renovations and I would otherwise be able to let the first two things slide, but this completely tears it! We ended up leaving before checkout time because we couldn't get back to sleep. The front desk clerk as we were checking out seemed surprised that they were doing work that early, saying that they weren't supposed to be doing that until after 11AM (Checkout time). Avoid!

Huge Disappointment
Stayed here two years ago and it was cheap and cheerful. This time it was awful. Only one elevator worked. There was mold throughout the shower, rooms on our floor had no door handles and it didn't matter what time of day someone was always smoking pot at the entrance. I was later told that it's also a refugee hotel which makes sense as the place was completely worn out. No complaint about refugees but having to share The only elevator with numerous kids, toys and garbage isnt really my thing I would never go back.

The hotel is under construction (remodeling) so there is a lot of random stuff in the hallways, but otherwise the room was completely comfortable The one concern on our room was that the lock was not very reliable. Sometimes our keys worked and other times they did not, this was a little frustrating but not too big of a deal.
