La médiocrité totale

Le service est médiocre, la chambre est délabrée, il n'y avait pas de savon dans les toilettes, l'eau chaude défaillante le matin et la télé ne marchait pas aussi...les serviettes n'étaient pas propres.....

Awful. Room smelled horrible, $100 deposit for what? I could have damaged the room and it would probably be in better shape than when I got there

Wonderful sleep

Based on other reviews, I took a chance. It turned out to be clean, comfy, safe, and I slept wonderfully. That's what mattered. It was not a high-end hotel, nor was I expecting one as I did not reserve one. The only trouble I had was trying to find it. It was in a separate wing of the Grand, which, based on reviews, I did not choose to stay at. All worked out just fine and, should I be in that area again, I would most likely stay there again.

I don’t even know where to start. The lobby is disgusting and dirty the guy has 0 customer service the room there was no shower head the bathroom had a hole in the roof where a light used to be and they never fixed it when I was using the toilet I saw cockroach’s and for a non smoking room it smelled like mist and cigarettes don’t recommend unless every hotel is burned down even sleeping in a car would have been better I guess that’s why I got it for $50

Worse stay, will definitely not go there again. I got to my room and there was a box of what seemed to be parts for a shower head on top of the microwave. I went to the restroom and noticed it didn’t have the handle to turn on the shower. I called the front desk and they asked me if I wasn’t happy they can swap my room and for a room closer to the front. I walked all the way to the front desk and they gave me the room next to my my original room. I asked the front desk employee if there was something closer since I had to walk back again with all my bags and all he said was no.
