Dirty rooms. Housekeeping not cleaning!

The room was not clean! Pillows smelled of mould, shower walls had hairs on the walls, and brown spot on toilet lid. Housekeeping OPENED my door at 9:44 am. Didn’t say housekeeping or anything. Knocked once and then opened the door - didn’t wait for a response. Checkout is at 11 so no idea why they’re disturbing people early!!! Totally inappropriate!! Especially a man walking in a room with one female guest!

BACKUP

This is a hotel i have stayed at before. I am slowly watching this property go down hill. My stay a year ago was fabulous. My stay 3 months ago ok . This time not so good.. Lights not working. Plumbing backing up. Noisy in the hallway all night.. My overall grip is WHY THE DRAINS ARE BACKED UP IN THE BATHROOM SINK AND TUB.. If room is cleaned doesn't the cleaner see that sink is clogged and say something. I will never understand

This property was the highest price hotel i looked at for this visit. First day trip to swi.ming pool, heated, nice until we see a bloody bandaid laying in the pool. Second day the bloody bandaid still there so obviously pool is not cleaned daily. The sosp, shampoo holder in our shower was so scummy underneath it fell off the ledge intto the tub. Underneath was slimy, also sosp scum spots on shower walls. Spoke to the desk attendant on Saturday morning who assured us it would be cleaned. It was NOT!!! Boyfriend tried to soak in tub and the plug didnt work. 4th floor end of hall window looks like a 3 yr old swiped it yo clean it. Elevator floors were DISGUSTING all weekend, were NOT mopped!!! Orange juice appeared to be very watered down on Saturday morning.....otherwise breakfast wasokay. For $541 this was UNACCEPTABLE!!!!!
