Absolutely disgusting. We didn’t even stay. As soon as we walked into the room, we turned right around and booked somewhere else. The room smelled strongly like urine, there were bugs everywhere, and the pillow had visible stains on it. The door lock was barely attached and didn’t feel secure at all, which was honestly concerning. On top of that, several things in the room were broken or missing. It felt dirty, unsafe, and completely unacceptable. Save yourself the time and money—do not stay here.

My second worse stay ever. Rooms filled with cockroaches and bugs. The cockroaches were crawling all over the room and my rooms light wasn’t working. When I told the front desk staff and showed him the light didn’t work and even showed him a cockroach on the bed, the normal thing for him to do was switch me rooms ! Instead, he just brought a lamp from his office and put it in the corner while he told a staff member to spray where the cockroach was. It wasn’t until I told him to switch me rooms that he switched me rooms but even then, the other room had cockroaches too! The rooms are remodeled for the most part which makes no sense while they’re full of cockroaches and insects. I had to cancel my stay and boom a different hotel.
