DO NOT STAY HERE

The condition of the pavilion room we reserved based on the info from hotels.com was not the room we got at check in. The nonsmoking room smelled strongly of smoke. The shower was dirty. The room was old and dirty and not what was advertised. The hotel is located on Fremont street so expect to hear extremely loud music coming from the bars until about 2am. It literally sounds like the music is in your room. We asked the front desk clerk if we could move to an interior room. The front desk clerk (May) said it was going to be an up charge of $100 dollars to move to an upgraded room. We explained that when we made the reservation for 2 rooms the 2nd room was staying in the “upgraded” room for the same price we booked. May would not budge on the price and was just flat out disrespectful and rude. We agreed to the $100 upgrade to get us out of the dirty side of the hotel to a clean nonsmoking room. She runs my credit card for $150, then lies and says she didn’t tell us $100 and said $150. This is in front of 3 witnesses. She then gets irate because we told her that’s not what she quoted us. She says she can reverse the charge and leave us in that old room and they can spray air freshener. Just a horrible horrible experience. We reached out to hotels.com customer service after everything that happened to see if they could help us with the room upgrade charge and they were zero help. Please do your research about this hotel. I highly recommend staying somewhere else.
