The most humid hotel room I've ever stayed in. You could smell the wetness in the air. Paper bags i had left in the room became soft to the touch. On top of that, it seems like housekeeping did not change the duvet when they serviced the room; I had spilled a bit of food on it the night before, and i came back to the bed made, but the very same stain was in the very same place on the duvet. There was also a half-dead roach in the middle of the room on my last night. I will not be returning.

The room smelled of mold and was very damp the night we checked in. Because it was late, we tried to make the best of it. The bed was nice, but everything felt damp. My sinuses started acting up. In the morning the situation was not improved. Next to the window in the corner, there was mold. When we went to the front desk, we were told they replaced all the windows, so maybe that is were the excess moisture was coming from. They offered another room, but it had the same smell, we did not see mold. We checked out early.
