Heads up must be advised when offering a stay

The property was under remodelation, we arrived late night and there was no body at the reception. The lady came after 20 minutes even when we tried to call the phone contact the first phone number was incorrect. Isn't the lady fault, the hotel had the receptionist attending 2 buildings at that time. I would like to be aware that the hotel there was under renew. The lock of our room didn't work so we only used the little chain to secure the door.

Hotel nada familiar

Terrible, llegué con mis hijos y olía el pasillo a marihuana, la habitación súper descuidada, paredes súper sucias, colchones viejos y desgastados, caja de cleenex vacía, alfombra sucia. Total me retiré a los 10 minutos
