When we first walked in, I noticed a stain on the toilet seat. We were exhausted and thought it was just a discoloration or something, didn't think much of it, but to make myself feel better, I took a disinfectant wipe to wipe the seat down AND THE STAIN CAME OFF. I think it may have been blood. We didn't mention it to staff because we clearly took care of it ourselves, but still gross. There was also no soap or shampoo of any kind, so be prepared to get your own or bring your own. The shower was way too strong, and there was no way to make the water come out without blasting you, any attempts to adjust the shower head made it worse. The room we had was small, but we expected that, but the air conditioner unit was so loud it sounded like a helicopter in our room making it hard to sleep. It's also in a noisy area, this probably doesn't happen all the time, but right outside our room they were doing utility work on a Saturday morning. Then there were loud garbage trucks. The walls are extremely thin and our neighbors were loud and stayed up late; there are no phones in the room to call the front desk, and the front desk didn't have hours during that time to call on our cell, and we didn't want to potentially get in an altercation with other guests so we just tried our best to ignore their noise. Not a relaxing place to stay.
