poor planning for poor construction

No towel racks in bathroom! It has paper-thin walls and floors. With la ow occupancy, they put everyone in adjoining rooms, kids screaming after midnight, elephants walking overhead. Should spread people out.

Door man walked into the room using his key and proceeds to stair at me and my girlfriend for an extremely uncomfortable amount of time, while we were both undressed and very much in shock of this. We talked to the worker and got into contact with his manager who then blocked my number and my girlfriends when she called to complain as well. We were told we would receive a discount and received nothing besides blocked phone numbers. Very unprofessional and disgusting hotel

The place was good for last minute reservations that weren’t outrageously expensive. Two things that need improvement are the shower since the water pools in the bathroom everytime you take a shower no matter how you close the curtain, and the options for breakfast.

This was a last minute stay reservation. It was fine for a night since we were traveling, but the area around it was rough and the pictures should be updated to better reflect the property. It was an OK stay.

I booked for two nights, checked out a day early cause we had an emergency and had to leave town. The manager Rick was no help and rude, and still charged me for 2 nights. The pictures are deceiving online, this is a motel that tries to pass off as a hotel, was not a 3 min walk to Riverwalk, bad side of town, wasn’t even downtown. The bed linens and covers were dirty look like poop, had a bad smell on them, the tv and wifi didn’t even work properly. The shower was moldy and so was the shower curtains, no, blow dryer in room, no phone in room, had to text a phone number to get a hold of staff.
