Dangerous filthy and dysfunctional

Made a 4 days reservation on April 2025 with Hotels.com. Upon arrival I was surprised by the incredibly amount of homeless people surrounding the hotel, nothing like this mentioned on the Hotels.com online brochure. I made the reservation and paid for it. It included WIFI as everyone requires, to my surprise there was no WIFI since it was broken, the room were not cleaned, they looked as if built in the 1970s and as if not cleaned ever since. The bathroom were ancient and the room "decoration" was hanging loose. I demanded a refund since I was not going to stay in this place but I was refused, they say that since I made the reservation with Hotels.com, I had to complain to Hotels.com. I complain to Hotels.com and within 24 hrs. the refuse my refund request. I did not stay in Hotel San Thomas for more than 1 hrs. yet I did not get my money refunded. Its a shame that Hotels.com its still listing this place with all the fake positive reviews. The place its dangerous, filthy and dysfunctional.

The hotel location is easy to find, the area is not ugly but people hanging or passing around is. I never had a security issue, but didn’t feel it was safe. The best part was the attending girl attitude, the check in process, the price, and the fact of space for me, rooms were spacious. The worst part was they didn’t provide clean towels, and when requested they gave me 3 of those you put your feet after shower; and the 2 other towels received, one was stained with something like blood. The room and the hotel in general was not clean. Too much dust and hair in the bathroom, rusty metal parts, and dirt everywhere. For me it was just a night and I think I got what I paid for, it is a cheap hotel but maybe I’ll not come back.

Muy mal estado

Este hotel esta con un muy mal mantenimiento, nuestra habitacion estaba con el drenaje del baño tapado, era una picina la ducha, solicitamos el arreglo y el personal de mantenimiento no trabaja los domingos, nos pasaron de habitacion y la que nos iban a dar esta llena de humedad, hasta olia y las paredes humedas, nos toco ir a una mucho mas pequeña que la que habia reservado, la limpieza es pobre, si no dices que te limpien no te arreglan la habitacion, se nota el descuido, en viajes anteriores habia ido, pero esta vez se nota el cambio, ya ni el restaurante esta operativo y cerca no hay muchas opciones para cenar o desayunar.... El personal muy amable y servicial no tienen la culpa del pesimo estado de las instalaciones

La habitación TERRIBLE, con pedazos de maderas cubriendo las paredes, olor horrible en la habitacion y una cortina de plastico sobre la cama. Ha sido el PEOR HOTEL que he ido, decidimos irnos y perder el dinero antes de regresar.

Ok voor korte overnachting

De kamer had geen ramen en rook naar schimmel. We hebben een andere kamer gevraagd en die zonder problemen gekregen. Deze kamer had wel een raam en de lucht was beter. De straat is redelijk druk dus je hebt oordopjes nodig om te slapen. Het hotel is oud en niet goed onderhouden. Er was geen warm water in de douche. Het personeel spreekt geen Engels maar zijn wel behulpzaam. Het zwembad op de rooftop zag er wel in orde uit. Er is enkel wifi in de lobby en niet in de kamers. Locatie dicht bij een metrostation. Ik zou er niet lang blijven, maar voor een snelle overnachting is het ok als je weinig belang hecht aan esthetiek.
