There was water coming up the seams of the wood floor and I got my socks all wet when I called the front desk the sent a maintenance guy but he couldn’t do anything more than put some towels on the floor. It seemed that the A/C Heating unit had water all around it. The towels were completely soaked in no time. They offered us another room but we were checking out the next morning so it didn’t make any sense. They did say to contact Expedia for them to compensate me with a credit through Expedia. Please let me know what can be done. It was very inconvenient.

The hotel isn’t in great condition, it’s pretty dated, and the room had an unpleasant smell. You can hear everything from all the rooms near you and random noises from what appears to be the plumbing? The heater was not working. We also heard a lot of screams in the middle of the night, which isn’t necessarily the hotels fault, but not something you want to go through. Overall not a great experience but I guess you get what you pay for?

Staff was nice but this place has all the warmth and charm of a prison cell. It was just missing the metal toilet. Painted cinderblock walls, cold floors, and a huge gap between the door and floor that I had to block with a towel to keep the breeze out. Clean-ish, but it smelled a little musty, cheap mattresses, and the little things like hair on the floor, conditioner in the shampoo bottle but no shampoo, only two towels. Great if you're on a budget and you don't care where you stay.
