Not a fan, the front desk was not well staffed, very rude in general, not at all helpful and even refused to help even after offering a large cash tip?!!?? Literally got the wrong room, it was not cleaned completely, there were even used items left behind from previous guests!!!refrigerator had partially eaten food inside, half used drinks, crumbs on floor, greasy/oily substance on tile floor in restroom… yuck. I was barefoot when I discovered the unknown gooooo with my toes and feet, slipping on floor. Streaky mirror with spit stains from toothpaste! Ewww. Will not be back EVERRR. Want a full refund!!

The hotel itself is great but the charging system at this hotel is confusing to the point of seeming outright deceptive. Low room rates with mandatory fees that make it pretty expensive. I guess these fees might be buried in the Orbitz info but is far from obvious. We heard several other guests complaining loudly about the fees.

The hotel was ok. The water in the bathroom barely runs hot. The shower head was in bad condition and the water was splashing everywhere. The toilet was so loud when flushed. It was actually hard to sleep. You can hear any time someone in the next room flushes a toilet. For the amount of money per night, It’s not worth it.

Beware of hidden fees tacked on at checkout

Beware of destination fees that are charged afterwards. There is little transparency in the full cost. They charge you these additional fees at checkout to cover things like WiFi and other perks. It’s incredibly deceiving.

Housekeeping lady kept knocking on my door

My only complaint would be the housekeeping lady kept knocking on my door every hour, starting at 7:57 am, 8:40-ish, and 10am. It made me think I stayed way past my checkout, so I woke up, packed, rushed to the front desk only to find out checkout was at noon. Frustrating because she kept disturbing my sleep and made me rush out of there.
