When I showed up to the property they had given my room away. They put us in room that was not what l requested so I could at least have a place to stay. They said they would get our room ready the next day. Three days later never heard from them to switch me to the room l had paid for. They never informed the front that I was staying in that room. They thought the room was empty. I Was there for seven nights and no one ever cleaned my room. They said they would but I needed to be out by 11 and when I left before 11am they still didn’t clean it. I approached one of the housekeepers to get clean towels they only wanted to give me three bath towels knowing that they had not cleaned my room. I asked for 4 towels they said that room only gets 3 lol. Worst experience ever in this getto as hotel. !!!!

The bathroom was not cleaned and had stains on the doors, toilet seat peeling, room phone was dirty, very noisy had to call down 3 times for noise above our room and it continued. Did not get rest. The best the front desk could do was provide a return of $37 out of the $375 that the room cost!! Then instead of returning it, I was charged an additional $37!! When I called to say something, the woman Jackie was getting rude about returning both transactions. Would never stay here again!!
