first of all it should never be listed, the building is in bad condition, the windows are falling, there is no aircondition considering it was 98 deg outside, the place was not clean I would not rate it any star. Expedia should take them off the hotels It is sad to call it a hotel.

There was always noise made by the people staying there and no one from staff controlled it. At times the noise would be until 4am and couldn’t sleep. Phone lines didn’t work to call reception

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
The staff was drab. Scheduled hours for the restaurant and bar were not honored. They advertised 7am-11pm but every night, even weekdays they closed before 10 pm and didn’t care when I wanted to have meal, the kitchen was closer before 930 pm.
