Hotel was dirty. Upon check in, Our room was made but the sofa in the room looked disarray as if someone had just woken up from a nap. Room had dust all over the furniture, cow webs and spiders around the bed. When we moved the sofa there were drug paraphernalia left in the floor. We asked to change the room and were given a different room, this room had ants. The front desk offered us $20 credit. What a joke.

Overpriced for what we got

The bed was clean and comfortable, but the room had an unpleasant odour, and the air conditioner was very noisy. One of the lightbulbs in the tiny bathroom was burned out and the second one on the verge of doing so. (Housekeeping staff would have noticed that. It flickered for the first minute or so every time we turned it on.) The seating area was awkwardly laid out, with the microwave on a shelf at ankle level, and the coffee maker between two shelves so it was awkward to fill. Breakfast was typical for a cold continental breakfast, but the room was small and poorly laid out, so guests were tripping over each other. The coffee machine was broken/empty on our second morning, but there was no one working there to refill it. I did mention it to one worker who came out of the inner room, but she vanished and didn't return in the time it took us to eat our food. I don't know what her job was, but clearly it wasn't to keep the breakfast going smoothly. Overall it was adequate, but for the price of the room, I expected better.
