No pool, no breakfast in this seedy place...
Okay, so it all started in the parking lot - very sketchy neighborhood and i dont get the creeps easily. Trying to check in, we had to ring a camera doorbell and the host took a while to get up to the door. Then after getting checked in, had to put a cash deposit down for our keys, which was strange... then the host led us to our room and the door was already open. Which was incredibly unusual to me. The shower looked like someone just didnt care to scrub it, ever. They enforce a "quiet time" but until that time IT WAS SO LOUD! screaming, doors slamming.. ridiculous. Not to mention at about midnight, it sounded like someone was drilling through the wall next door! And then ALL NIGHT LONG, sounded like there was water dripping in the ceiling. Got a poolside room but the pool was shut down. There was NO breakfast as it advertises. Felt like this hotel which was probably once a very nice hotel has turned into a flop house. I do not recommended staying here.

Never ever stay here.
I paid $50 extra to have a pool view room. There are no pool view rooms. The pool has been condemned by the city 3 years ago. However they’re still happy to take your money and charge you extra for the pool view. I was shown 3 different rooms. All were filthy. I was told they could not cancel my reservation and refund my money. The entire property is in disrepair. This is by far the worst hotel I’ve ever stayed in. I can’t believe the entire building isn’t condemned. The man at the desk actually tried to be helpful other than refusing to cancel the reservation or refunding the money for the non existent pool view. Even the balcony was filthy.

I can believe they are allowed to operate.
Looks like they just reopened a couple of weeks ago, after being abandoned for a couple of years. The floors were dirty and walls were dirty everywhere. The carpet was coming apart at the seems. One elevator was out of order and the other looked like it should be. There was mold around the patio door in the room and the linen was stained. Even though there was a no refund policy, we chose not to stay, and instead continued our 14 hour drive home. I can not stress enough how truly awful the place was. This website should be ashamed to have them listed. It is more of a flop house than a hotel.

Absolute Disgust
Upon check-in, we were informed that the pool was closed and had been for a while now. The buffet breakfast that was offered was an intercontinental upon arrival. The overall cleanliness of the lobby and hallways was disgusting. The elevator’s floor tiles were broken and missing in spots. There was trash throughout the hallway to the room. The blanket was strung across the bed and it was not made and the sheets had very large noticeable stains on them. The floor hadn’t been vacuumed and the bathroom had bugs and trash all over the floor with stained towels. People are also living in the hotel with their children.
