Run down but great price

Last minute trip, needed something close to Hyland Hospital. Was clean yet run down. Shower knob was chipped and fell out so I had to Jimmy it to start shower. Area had ladies of the night working so it was difficult to stay asleep from their heels up and down the stairs!

There was never anyone at the front desk to help. They did not have coffee or pastries in the morning. The rooms are uncapped. Much noise throughout the night coming from outside.

10/10 Excellent

Very respectful and friendly staff and maids clean rooms and quiet
Satori, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

The front desk was fine, but not positive or kind. The rooms were incredibly worn down and the cleanliness wasn't good. There were other people's hairs all over the bathroom, and every corner was dirty. We weren't given any towels. It was a "you get what you paid for" experience. The bed was surprisingly comfortable and the air conditioner worked sufficiently.
LaRoyas, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Roach hotel

Place had roaches and bugs
Linton, 1-night trip

Responses from staff were quick, and it was secure at night.
Duane, 2-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Worse hotel ever

My first room was 308 and it was completely unhealthy. There was mold and mildew everywhere. The shower curtain looked like it hadn’t been changed or washed in years. We left the door open for almost an hour and the room still smelled like mold and mildew. I eventually had to go downstairs and ask for a new room, which she gave me with no problem. The new room was better but there was still mold and mildew everywhere. The hotel also had a lot of prostitution around it. I seen at least 7 within my time staying there. The only reason I picked the hotel was for the view of the water I seen that they were advertising, but that is not their view. It’s the hotels view from across the street. I feel ripped off and wouldn’t recommend anybody to stay here unless you’re a prostitute.
