First room was filthy asked for a new room and was rudely told no, but when I said I wanted a refund and I’d leave then another room was produced. Upon opening the door there was a half drunk cup on counter, bed was unmade and dirty towels in the bathroom. I have contacted hotel and Orbitz for a refund and gotten no where. I didn’t leave because of choice but they were unable to provide a room that was clean.

The entire hotel smelled of a strong chemical. It was to the point that my son threw up because it was making him feel so sick. I’d like to request a refund for the night. Our window wouldn’t open and it was a very challenging night.

We were given a room number…our keys didn’t work. Went back to the desk and had keys reset. Went back up to the room and the door opened but the safety latch was employed. There were people in that room already!! Back to the front desk and given another room. Unacceptable is an understatement.
