Weed smell all round. Hall way stinks so bad. Wash hand basin would not flush. Bathtub looks like someone threw up in there. It was a total disaster. I wouldn’t wish that place on my enemy. We had to change rooms because the first room was unbearable. Forgot a shoe and came back for it and the shoe was gone, both pair😠 and the reception guy was not even concerned guess he had other priorities.

Not the property ownwers, but you who are at fault

You, Hotels.com are at fault, not the property owners. How can you sell such rooms without inspection, andcstill be in bussiness? The whole 3rd floor smells like urine. Leaks in the rooof, all baseboards detached, floor squares missing. Door unable to lock from inside. No security at all!!! This was a nightmare. I called a family member living an hour away to pick me up. No way was I staying for a second night. Go take pictures for yourself!!!! Room 241. I want a full refund!!!

It’s reasonably priced for a reason - it is in desperate need of renovations. The walls are really thin as well - I could hear everything in my neighbors rooms - above and next to me.
