Maybe something to improve would be the elevator

I’d stay here again but only if it was a last resort.
Pros:

Location

Cons:

Building looked run down even though room was clean. It didn’t seem like anyone worked there. No one ever at the front desk. Breakfast out of a lot at 9 and garbage overflowing. Felt like the place was very understaffed. It wasn’t awful it just seemed way too expensive for what we got.

“We are never, ever, ever staying here again!”
Pros:

The location to Miami Campus

Cons:

For starters there was literally 10 cars in the entire parking lot and we got put on the 3rd floor. Elevator was out of a scary movie. Hallway was disgustingly warm and smelly. Put in room 322 where it’s obvious they’ve had roof issues by the waves in the ceiling. The “hot” water coming from the tub faucet turned to ice water when the shower was turned on. Whoops too late already in it. When I called the front desk to report the problem there was no answer. I went downstairs to find the employee sitting there watching something on a computer to the side. When “maintenance “ came up in their flip flops to fix it, they also couldn’t reach the front desk by phone,we were moved to the room next door 324 when they were unable to figure it out. The new room had less waves in the ceiling and “hot” water in the shower, however the drains in both the sink and tub were extremely slow. We booked 2 nights and I figured we could suffer through since we wouldn’t really be there. Our first morning the “breakfast” consisted of mostly items that can be purchased at Walmart/Sam’s Club. The orange juice coming out of the machine had bugs in it. After a very long day in almost 100 degree temps we came back to an equally hot room. The air was not working properly. “Housekeeping” brought towels and that was it…the absolute bare minimum. We debated a quick dip in the “pool” however there was no movement in it other than the obvious hairs floating all over the top of the murky water so scrapped that idea quickly. This is the only time I have ever worried about bed bugs when I’ve stayed at a hotel. When checking out in the morning I told the same employee who was there every time we went by and when we checked in that the drains weren’t working right and the air wasn’t either. This employee, whom honestly was not well groomed or professionally dressed ever, just looked at me and said “oh ok someone will look into it.”
