Don't Book A Room Here

1.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 31 Oct 2024
The whole building is in disrepair and desperately needs to be cleaned and updated. I was given a room with an adjoining room which I could hear the people next to me (the hotel far from full). The bed looked as if someone had slept on it, the window crank was broken leaving the window open a few inches plus the screen was ripped and would not stay in. The lamp was dirty and ripped. The bathroom sink stopper was broken leaving the stopper in the down position where the water would not drain, the faucet was not secure whereas you could move it left or right. The tub tiles had filthy grout and taps/spout. I would not touch the rug with my feet as it was evident it was not vaccumed and who knows when it was last cleaned. The elevator was dirty and since repairs do not seem a priority, I was hesitant to use the elevator. The whole place seems stuck in the 70's. Wish I had read the reviews before booking. Spend a few more $ and get a clean room somewhere else.
Date of stay: October 2024
Room Tip: This hotel is lower than a 'budget' hotel. Spend a few more $ and stay in a clean room somewhere...

Simply the worst experience ever. Upon check in, was given a key to an occupied suite. I surprised a guest as I walked in to his room. Went back to the desk and was given another room. The halls smelled of sewage and the bed hosted a large insect nestled on the pillow. Called the desk and was upgraded to a suite. This room, when I walked in had the lights and TV on, the sheets were rumpled as if someone was using the room. There was a huge disgusting stain dripping down one wall. The manager mumbled some excuse and I said give me my money back. Another excuse about not having the access code to refund led to my accelerating the issue with loud, firm tones. Miraculously the code was found and I was refunded. Do not stay in this dump. It should be closed down. Absolutely disgraceful.

Room tip: Do not stay here

Cheap so that’s a plus. But the room was not clean at all. Two shower towels. One was stained with brownish red streaks. The other was yellow and still smelled like urine. Tissue stuffed into the peephole on the door. Crums on the floor. Blanket had cigarette burns. Didn’t seem like the room was cleaned at all. Breakfast is lame. Nothing hot. Granola bars, bananas and muffins basically.

Room had black greasy hand prints everywhere. I’ve seen garage bathrooms cleaner than this. Notes left everywhere by someone saying they had bad service from this hotel. Odd smell in the building also.

I don’t even know how to start this I don’t write reviews about things. The room was disgusting with stains on the carpets, sheets, blankets and pillows. Had to take pictures of everything. Holes in the wall, stains on walls, used floss on sink from previous guests (i think) and the door WOULD NOT CLOSE. I didn’t even stay an hour. I immediately called booking.com to get a refund and the hotel wouldn’t give me a full refund regardless of all the pictures i had they still charged me a night. If there was a negative stars option i would be spamming it.
