Awful Experience.
The hotel was closed upon arrival with locked doors and signs saying NO VACANCY. I was forced to contact Hotels.com to find alternate accommodations.

Grubby and old
First room the tv was broken, got moved to another room which was extremely dirty. Blood stains on the bed and the shower curtain. The blanket looked like it hadn’t been washed in 10 years, was extremely off putting and felt so grubby. The walls were paper thin and could hear the couple next door going at it early in the morning. Would have moved accomodation had it not been so late that we arrived. The whole place needs to be renovated or just knocked down. Would not recommend.

Smoking Room!!! Bad Deal!!!
I booked this hotel because it wasn't too far away from CSUMB/Marina. It shows that they have continental breakfast. (NO, just coffee and pastries) I got stuck in a smoking room, (I didn't think it would be too bad) It was HORRIBLE!!!!. The room was so rank that even the strong spray/disinfectant didn't make a dent. The carpet, draperies and the bedspread stunk so bad they made me sick. Housekeeping tried to help but it was aweful. I tried to get out of staying there, but the manager said I had to stay or I would be charged anyway. He wanted me to leave so he could book it out and get twice the money. The area was booked so we stuck it out but I would not go there or send anyone else there. I

Booked a non-smoking room but was given a room that smelled like cigarettes. Asked the owner about it and he just replied back "oh, the previous person must have smoked" instead of moving me to another room or offering any other consolation. I definitely didn't want to be charged the smoking fees. The rooms didn't have an ironing board, asked someone at the front desk and they weren't sure where they were located and had to wait for a housekeeper to locate. The furniture had graffiti and the TV remote didn't even have batteries.
