I only wanted a clean room for one night. The sheets were dirty, there was debris on the table between the beds, spatters of unknown substances on the walls and headboards. There was a large puddle of pee all around the toilet. The tv wasn’t working. I was thoroughly disgusted. I left after a few minutes. I spoke with the desk clerk who was very accommodating. He allowed me to look at two other rooms, which were in the same condition minus the pee. I spent over $50 on two 5-minute taxi rides leaving and returning to the airport.

The room didn’t had refrigerator and only 2 towels (nothing for face, hand or floor). Nobody came to clean the room and when we request to change the towels, they didn’t had nothing available. Bad Wi-Fi service and very noisy place.

Thank you for your input.

The first room had dangerous water leakage on the floor, hair in the bathtub, and insufficient supplies for the 4 registered guests. We requested another room. The bathroom light in the second room did not work. We saw a roach crawl across the room. The onsite paid parking was not automated and was difficult to enter and exit. Each time we travelled, we had to exit the vehicle to request the security arm be raised to allow us access.
