Pros:

Solid 3 star hotel. Stayed 1 night for a concert at the coliseum. Extra star for late check out at 2pm! Staff was friendly, place was clean enough but definitely needs updating. If you just need a cheap place to rest your head then this is perfect for that price.

Cons:

The room smells so bad, I wasn’t even sure the sheets were clean. The mattress is probably 30 years old. Dust everywhere and cherry on top, I woke up the next morning with my body covered in bed bugs bites. UNBELIEVABLE, I never had an experience like this. Still using hydrocortisone 5 days after!!!

Pros:

The bed sheet was not changed, sand from previous guest still on sheet. The front desk was not happy when I asked for 2nd bed sheet, saying laundry is closed, and I should ask for anything earlier. The water flow is very low. Bed is not even.

Pros:

Rooms have been remodeled but some of the remodels don't make sense like nowhere to hang clothes. It looks seedy from outside, but it wasn't bad.
