Terrible and scary experience

Worst experience ever. We felt we made a big mistake by taking a room in this location. Dirty streets, abandon areas around, not even a safe parking area close to the hotel. Why hotels. Com eould recomend a place like this for $200.00 dollars a night.??? We do not trust “hotels .com “anymore!!!😡 The location is disgusting!!!

The staff were helpful, understanding and pleasant. Their system was down, only one girl was working and it was late (11:30pm) There was some hold up checking in and confirming my last minute booking (cancelled flight) The elevator was broken. The property was clean enough but could have been cleaner.

Extremely friendly staff and cleaning crew. Properly seems to be an old establishment that used to be a smoking friendly property; Eventhough, the room was marked as non-smoking room, but the smoke smell is embedded in the room, walls and carpet. There is a strong smell of smoke when you open the door. It made us dizzy for our stay duration and 2 days after our checkout.
