Need cash to pay

A check in we were told if we used a credit card we would be charged 18% so we had to pay cash and of course our cash is limited so we weren’t expecting that. So if you book with this hotel definitely pay through Hotels.com it’s a very funky place.

Terrible

The Shower and the Bathroom sink were clogged with water in two different rooms. The security guards are the maintenance men. The receptionists lives on site and is a thief. She charged me for more people after 5 hours of already knowing that I had the other people. The money went into her pocket. i received no receipt. The place is very difficult to find. I had to pay a local to escort me to the place. DO NOT STAY HERE!

The place was clean and the employees were very friendly, what upset my husband and I was that We made the reservation through Expedia, and when we arrived at the place they charged us much more than the total that was stated on Expedia
