Filthy!!

This hotel was disgusting! My daughter and I walked into the room, and the breakfast from the previous person was sitting on the cabinet under the TV. The carpet was so run-down that parts of it were nonexistent. Also, the soap in the shower was still there from the prior guests. I paid for two nights but had to leave; there was no way I was going to stay another night.

I extremely happy with this hotel but the only problem was the traffic, the hotel was located opposite side of the road and it’s kinda hard to make a turn when you came from airport road. Otherwise everything was great.

It was dirty. I had roaches in my room and the AC would not get cold enough. Luckily I was exhausted from my travel or I would’ve left that place immediately. Staff barely spoke English and were rude to a point. I stayed friendly and happy go lucky the whole time but the roaches in the room creeped me out. I barely slept because I was worried about one crawling on me. Also, there was a leftover joint in the bathroom when I came into my room. Glad someone had a good time at least.
