We arrive there at 12:30 AM and the employee end up giving us a room which was already occupied. We were trying to open the room and we heard a person inside the room. When we went back, the employee didn’t even apologize. After that, we got another room on this room. The AC didn’t work. The shower tub was clogged so we were not able to shower. Also, it didn’t have an iron as well. I suggest no one booked this hotel.

When I arrived at checkin the Front Desk shouted from the back office to wait she will be right up and contined her personal ohone call for 5 minutes. I checked in and dropped my bags off to go for dinner. When I arrived back to my room the deadbolt did not latch on my door. I called the front desk and was askwd very rudely how come I didnt check the door when I checked in and there was no maintenence available. I asked about another room and was told Nope none available. I slept with my table and chairs against the door. The next day i talked with the front desk again no empathy and she came to my room to check the lock. She said if maintenance couldnt fix I had to return to checkout of my room for another room. Maintenence would be there at 12 and would need to checkout afterwards. Iwas told I couldnt cancel my reservation. The property is outdated, dirty, noisy and smelt of marijuana smoke. I will not be staying here in the future. Waste of money, in the future booking a hotel or air bnb.

Never stay here

The exterior of the hotel is poorly maintained and completely run down. The floors of the room were absolutely filthy and made the bottoms of our feet black. The "breakfast" that was offered was slices of white bread and hard boiled eggs. When asked if they could refill the coffee pot in the lobby, we were told that would take 30 minutes. The overall experience was TERRIBLE! This hotel should be removed from hotels.com

The room was extremely dirty. The floor was so dusty we wiped the kids feet off with a small towel and they charged us $100 for it. They kept my deposit and the woman was very very rude.

Room was okay, found a dead cockroach in ttd bathroom. Was rushed to get out of room. The continental breakfast in the morning was very sparse. For the price of the room per night, should have been much better.

There was roaches and my room was filthy upon arrival, it was in a super sketchy area and there was trash all over outside. I originally messed up and actually needed the room until the 24th and I only had it booked until the 23rd. I asked the hotel at the beginning to book me another day. When I went to complain about the roaches on the 23rd (because that's when I found them), they told me I couldn't book another night and I had to leave.
