Best value. Don’t expect 3 stars but it is cheap!

The water pressure wasn’t the best. Water temp was mediocre. The bathroom main light didn’t half the time. My TV didn’t work. It was the cheapest and most convenient room. I was the only to sleep and have parking without spending hundreds a night. The staff was really friendly and helpful with what they could do.

Location was good walking distance to DKR or 6th Street. Didn’t expect having to pay valet parking at check in. The outdated rooms with No fridge or Microwave wasn’t what we expected, the rooms were dirty but you get what you pay for. Also, if you’re going to be required to pay $40 a night for valet, than maybe you should be able to have access to your vehicle when you need it. Instead, we were charged and valet told us since we were out at night that we “could” go ahead and park it ourselves since there is no attendant from 11pm to 7am……..soooo, why are we paying for valet again???? It honestly didn’t look like the floors and bathrooms had been cleaned in over a month. Again, location was great, but at minimum the rooms should be clean and this was the determining factor for us that we would not recommend staying here.

This property is deteriorating. The photos online are deceiving. I was told the property will be renovated and they are still booking people into rooms that are in desperate need of upgrades. My room had no working telephone, door latch missing, shower curtain torn and tied together, condensation on windows, air conditioner separating from the wall, and more. I reported all items and was told they would send someone to repair things. The person never showed. Then later they stated the person was gone for the day. They offered to move me only after their hotel was booked so there were no options. I was not completely satisfied w my stay. I would like to be refunded for my stay!!

Horrible, avoid and stay somewhere else

What a dump. Avoid. My door wouldn't close and lock, I asked the front desk manager if I could change rooms. She told me "no, but I can cancel your reservation and refund your money if you'd like to stay somewhere else." I book approximately 60+ hotelnights per year, I'm a Platinum hotels.com member, and I've never seen service this crappy. This is the first time I've ever left a bad review for a property. Avoid and just stay somewhere else.

Got woken up in the middle of the night by Someone trying to get into are room , thank god we had the deadbolt and u bolt secured if not they would have. They manage to crack the trim of the door with the force they made. Front desk night John had no empty and no customer service skills he asked what could he do for me was he can switch rooms or I can checkout. I checked out immediately after that and he never went to check on us or send anyone despite me telling him I was scared to leave the room . The audacity of him when I checked out ,He gave me my checkout receipt and said thank you ! Called this morning and a man named Jonathan said he could issue a refund and said he would escalate it to manager tomorrow morning and I can expect a call . Thank you Jonathan for showing empathy and concern with the safety of your guest.

Stay somewhere else

I stayed at this hotel on two separate occasions with a gap of a week between both stays. I was given a different room each time. On the first stay I was given a room on the second floor and on the second stay I was given a room on the first / ground floor. In both rooms, none of the doors to the bathroom or the closet close properly. During my first stay, one the second floor, the floor was dirty. Walking around barefoot left my feet black. During my second stay, in the room on the ground floor, the carpet was disgusting, like it hadn’t been vacuumed from the last several groups of people that had stayed there. There was dirt, crumbs and even the back of an earring on the floor. The curtains were ripped and hanging by a thread. The security latch on the door was also broken and as a solo female traveller, this left me uneasy. There is also a gap between the door and the frame. Also my room was close to the parking area, so loud cars came and went at all hours of the night and startled me awake. There was no remote for the television. There was also no attempt at housekeeping / giving me fresh towels during my stay of 4 nights. They also make you pay a deposit. I got my deposit back for the first stay, but it appears that they are keeping my deposit for the second stay, even charging me for it twice. If you have a choice to stay somewhere else - do NOT stay here. Push your budget and stay somewhere else because it isn’t worth what you might get.

This hotel is terrible - avoid at all cost. I've traveled extensively around the world over the past 25 years, and this is by far the worst hotel experience I've had - worse even than some shady places in South Asia. Everything was bad about this place, from the staff to the building, safety devices being plugged off in the room, etc... Check-in was so bad. The attended had a huge headset over her ears and hid behind a massive display. She didn't bother standing and felt very standoff-ish. I booked a room with 2 beds as I was traveling with my 20 yo son; but she tried to get me into a room with a single bed to share. It took 90mn for them to find us a proper room, during which they sent us to a room that was already occupied; or where they lied about calling us up. Very, very poor service, that person shouldn't be allowed to speak to customers. The room was in a horrible state. Curtains were torn, there were holes in the walls and on the furniture. Bathroom appliances felt like they hadn't been replaced since the 1970s. Biggest issue is that the smoke detector had been unplugged from the wall and was laying on the desk - as in somebody didn't bother replacing the battery when the thing starting to ping. Hotel was super noisy through the night. Staircases reeked of cigarette smoke and urine worse than underground trains in big cities. And we didn't even get close to their breakfast given how bad everything else was. Horrible place. Stay away
