ANTONIO

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
The beds are spring-type mattresses. They're old and it's time to replace them! Both beds had indentations in the mattress making them very uncomfortable to get a good night's sleep. Roaches in the room. The mattresses and the metal bed frames are very noisy. I paid for 2 nights but only stayed 1 night; I did not want to spend another sleepless night nor deal with roaches either. This was very surprising since I chose this hotel because of the 7.6 stars compared to the 4.4 star hotels around.
