Awful. Room smelled horrible, $100 deposit for what? I could have damaged the room and it would probably be in better shape than when I got there

Wonderful sleep

Based on other reviews, I took a chance. It turned out to be clean, comfy, safe, and I slept wonderfully. That's what mattered. It was not a high-end hotel, nor was I expecting one as I did not reserve one. The only trouble I had was trying to find it. It was in a separate wing of the Grand, which, based on reviews, I did not choose to stay at. All worked out just fine and, should I be in that area again, I would most likely stay there again.

Worse stay, will definitely not go there again. I got to my room and there was a box of what seemed to be parts for a shower head on top of the microwave. I went to the restroom and noticed it didn’t have the handle to turn on the shower. I called the front desk and they asked me if I wasn’t happy they can swap my room and for a room closer to the front. I walked all the way to the front desk and they gave me the room next to my my original room. I asked the front desk employee if there was something closer since I had to walk back again with all my bags and all he said was no.
