How does this place have a decent rating. I checked in and had to leave because 1. Their elevator was broken and I’m disabled. 2. I didn’t feel safe. 3. My room was meant to be an apartment where people LIVE not vacation. Oh, also the front desk did not speak English so he did not understand me when I returned my keys and left.

Average Budget Hotel.

The room we stayed in was almost in a broken condition. Lights had to be hit a couple of times to make it work. The table clock showed wrong time and won't set to the correct time even after multiple tries. The bathroom had fixtures coming out though they were in a working condition. Break fast area is small so became crowded when more people came in. Had difficulty talking to the breakfast and housekeeping staff in English. They were native Spanish speakers wouldn't understand anything in English.

Absolute nightmare !!+++

The front desk staff was rude. Beware incidentals hold is $100. The pool is down. The coffee machine in lobby is down. The exterior door was so settled you could see daylight through it. And it did not lock properly. The bathroom door also did not shut all the way. The shower curtain rod was rusted out. The ac unit was half working. When i made a complaint through hotels.com the property agent said i spoke to him. I never spoke to a man at all. I was never offered compensation. They refuse to refund anything saying we canceled. We stayed the length of our reservation.

Possible theft?

Check-in was pleasant enough, the clerk wasn’t super personable. The room was clean and comfortable. The only issue I had and it will keep me from staying here again, a random charge appeared on my card at 3:03am the night of my stay. When I brought it to the clerk’s attention the following morning, her intersection definitely led me to believe she knew it was a dishonorable action and/or who did it. Her tone when she said, “I’m going to screenshot this and send it to my manager,” also led me to believe that this might have happened before. She did immediately refund the charge. But the whole thing made me very uneasy and I do hope the clerk working who did this was reprimanded.

The property was recently renovated, it felt like a cheap flip. It was new but definitely on the cheap. The breakfast was good but incredibly small so we skipped it the second day. It waset worth the hassle. AC was great. Helicopter tours next door were a little annoying but thankfully did not go too late.
