Beware of good reviews

I booked this hotel because it was convenient to where I needed to be. I’m very familiar with the area and it appeared to have great reviews. Unfortunately there is no person on site you check in virtually. There is no staff on site that speaks English when you do find someone. There is no elevator. There are no ADA provisions. We had no one service our room the first day the second day there was no hot water. We had to work virtually to get moved to another room that was downstairs and had hot water unfortunately I will never stay here again, even though it is the most convenient to where I need to be

Every time someone got a bed they would hit the sheet metal bed frame and the whole hotel could hear it. Not a good design for a hotel that’s supposed to be quiet.
