A microwave to heat up food. Would be nice. But I understand, unfortunately they may steal them out the rooms. But other that, that it was quiet.
This hotel is... not for sleeping, shall we say. The clerk didn't know how to check someone in with a reservation. In the time it took her to try to look me up, I decided not to stay and absolutely would not reserve again and would not have reserved if I had known. Hotels.com - you should remove this from your list of available properties.
I don't know what to say I don't have no work all I can just say respectful treat you good and get it done a longer you don't cause no problem they always there for you to help you what you need it no
The room smelled like smoke, sketchy area and rude staff!!! I complained before 6pm , called Expedia and the hotel. They wanted to put me on the 2nd floor, no way in such a sketchy area. What a waste of mo eh and the credits I had.
Tv remote had no batteries, then ask front desk for batteries and TV’s volume did not work. No complimentary shampoos. The sink was dirty and the sheets smelled.
Run! Don't book here this is the filthiest most disgusting place I have ever been. We got our money back and never used the room after seeing it and smelling it!
First of all I went there at around 8 pm and no one answered the door or phone to let us in. I went back the next day at about dusk and same thing. My card was still charged for three days. I never stayed one night
It was the most disgusting hotel I have ever seen. My room had dry blood on the walls. I literally had to scrub my shower with sand paper before I could let my daughter shower. The television had no buttons and I had to hold the remote directly to the tv before I could change the channel. And then the tv kept turning off. I had to hit the wall in the bathroom for the light to com on and there was only one outlet in the room for us to charge our phones
