DO NOT STAY HERE

This was the worst hotel I have ever been in. We arrived at midnight due to flight delays and had it been any earlier we would not have stayed even one night. The entire room had sticky dirty floors and surfaces. It smelled so bad of pee. I wouldn't allow my son to use the bathroom because it was so dirty. The beds had stains on them. None of the outlets worked. I put all of out clothes and shoes in a trash bag because I was very very afraid of bed beds based on the condition of the room. DO NOT STAY HERE.

The room overall was pretty nice and clean. Only thing I'd say would be fixing would be the shower door as the alert door in my room won't stay closed and would slide open. Overall a good stay

Unpleasant odor

The room had a horrible sewer like stench, it never went away, the sheets were small, they didn’t cover the whole mattress which was exposed.

Great site, poor hotel

The staff we met were bored and not overly helpful or friendly. There was no coffee in the morning, just messy remains. Nothing in the room to make tea or coffee. The whole experience was a sad Spartan affair. It's a shame because it's a fantastic site, USS Midway, Little Italy, airport and interstate all nearby. All it needs to make it a great place is a few pictures in the rooms, a few more plants and some enthusiasm.
