Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Room was not clean and smelly. I went down asked for another one with ventilation. Staff helped me out. Then internet was not working properly so I devices to went down for the second time. The third time I went down due to the key system ssues. So I decided not to stay in there eventhough it was late evening around 11 . I took all my belongings, expressed my disappointment and left them behind. Lady from the counter try to help but it is out of her scope. I won’t go back there.on that day I was arriving from the airport around 2 hours before.

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.
