When we arrived at property we would not access right away even though it was after the 3pm check in time. We called and they reported they sent check in info but it wasn’t until we saw the cleaning crew come out of the room that we received check in information. The lighting in the main room and bathroom was terrible. There was little to no hot water and you could constantly hear water pump kick on and off. You could also visibly see where mold was or had been in the room. The bed and pillows we uncomfortable. The neighborhood was quiet and it seems fairly secure and safe.

Well, if you need a cheap place before an early flight, Pelican Poshtel sure is near the airport. Otherwise, it was not quite what we expected. The room had no windows, make sure to bring soap and shampoo as nothing is provided. It also smelled heavy of air freshener with no window to air the room out. It was cheap, and fit our purpose of a place to sleep before a 6am flight, but i wouldn’t want to stay there any longer than one night. They also send you an email saying “you are expected to leave a positive review.” Kind of a red flag. Consider other spots.

I would not recommend staying here. The photos are misleading. I have never stayed in a place like this. Our room had no windows, no phone, low water pressure, no small towels, half a roll of toilet paper, the bathroom door didn’t close. I understand it’s a budget place but the photos should be realistic and reflect what you’re getting so you’re not disappointed when you come here and feel like you’re in a jail cell.

If you’re here to vacation. & more than likely will be spending your vacation doing tourist things. This place is convenient; close to everything; and worth the $. Slept. Shower. & toilet worked perfectly fine.
