Our key cards continuously didn’t work. We had to have them reset at least 4 times. No pillows on one bed and they told us to sleep without them until I suggested they take some from an unused room. Not enough towels and they wouldn’t give us clean towels unless we traded the dirty ones. AC wasn’t working either.

The heat in the room did not work and the blanket on the bed was too light. The room had a lingering smell of cigarettes even though it was a non-smoking room. Plus my wife felt that the bathroom had a smell of sewage. The ‘free’ breakfast was lacking-Old fruit, just some bread and a small amount of cereal. Both of the coffee machines were broken. Be aware the the photo of the room looks much better than the actual room that we had.

The neighborhood is very sketchy with strange people wandering around. Granted the hotel office staff called the police to sort out the vagrants. The rooms seemed updated and clean but the hotel exterior was very dirty and dated. The other clients were also sketchy. I would definitely not stay there again.
