Horrible service. Everything was dirty. The whole building is having mold & dilapidated. They don’t have hotel card keys or maid service! Might have to sell back to the bank before they get shutdown!

I don’t normally leave negative reviews, but this stay was truly awful and people deserve to be warned. The moment we walked into the room, we knew something was wrong. The bed sheets had visible stains and even cigarette burns, which was completely unacceptable. The bathroom was just as bad, it was dirty, grimy, and clearly not cleaned before our arrival. The entire room felt unsafe, uncomfortable, and nothing like the photos advertised online. We immediately asked for a refund, but the property refused to take responsibility or offer any solution. This was by far the worst hotel experience I’ve ever had, and I would strongly recommend avoiding this place altogether.

The property is well located but the room we were given was extremely dirty, there were cockroaches in the living room and the kitchen. It was noisy and one of the employees was yelling at one of the guest. People were smoking outside of our door. We took videos of the cockroaches and when I showed it to a staff member she said it was strange because they get exterminators often and that she could not believe it.
