Horrible! I’f I could give 0 stars I would! Room was very smelly, dirty sheets still had stains and hairs from the previous people. Horrible service. They left toilet paper half ways. No shampoo and no soaps. They asked for a deposit in cash seems very sketchy. Area very loud at night you can’t sleep. Do your self a favor go somewhere else.

Staff was nice and service was quick. Room was clean enough. There was some dust on the floors. Outside is very loud and the refrigerator makes a noise every so often, but we were still able to get a decent sleep. Mattress was VERY firm. For those who prefer a soft bed, you will not be comfortable here. Not perfect, not bad either.

Worst filthy hotel terrible dirty towels hotel dilapidated place graffiti everywhere disgusting air filter dirty sheets pillows there was hair and smudges on it very bad the most awful ever rude staff nothing good no English. Do not stay here. Disappointing customer service bare bones garbage piled up around the property it was gross Will never stay here I left. And they didn’t want to give me a refund. Cheap thieves treat people like nothing just take your money room is definitely not up to Covid standards there was a rat there. This place should not be on this app and the board of health should pay them a visit I’m serious.

There was a used condom by the bed, the shower was dirty, the fridge wasn’t plugged in, all bedding and towels were stained, and just very run down in general. Not a comforting experience!

We booked the room 104 on May 2nd, 2025. Upon checking in that evening, we were extremely disappointed with the condition of the room. The floor was sticky, as though something had been spilled and not cleaned properly. The bathroom was in a particularly unhygienic state, the toilet had no cover and was clearly not cleaned. The bedsheets appeared dirty, and the towels were stained with black marks and had an unpleasant odor. The room does not look like the pictures on the website at all. Overall, our stay was very disappointing due to the lack of basic cleanliness and hygiene, which we expect as a minimum standard. We would like a refund if possible.
