Pros:

Leftovers sock from prior guests, which means they didnt vacuum but if you walk on the floor barefooted your feet become black from the damp squishy floor. Only gave us 2 towels and the door had major space around the doorframe. The atrendant was not even remotely friendly either. No "do not disturb" sign so they came in our room everyday and made beds.

Pros:

It was dirty, smelly, outdated and everything was broken or just missing from the room. There was no telephone in the room to call the front desk, no lamp beside the bedside, i had to take a coffee maker from another room and couldnt even use it it was so dusty inside. I was supposed to stay for 2 nights but checked out

Pros:

Second time staying here. The staff is nice and moved our rooms when the TV wasn’t working. The floor was slippery in the new room and the bathroom had hair in it from the previous stay.

Pros:

Carpet in the hotel was sketchy, no microwave in room, Alarm clock broken/not turning on. Phone very dirty. Dining chairs sticky, requested for house keeping not to enter my room or clean it. There was no do not disturb sign to place on door. Management made aware. Came back to my room with a long hair on my tooth brush, beds made etc. I never have ppl enter my home or hotels where I am keeping my stuff. First time this happened. Last time in life I will ever stay at their hotel.
