10 large roaches dead under bed. 1.5 ED meds and container found in room along with a half a bblluunnttt and a crusty wash cloth in the shower. You could see sunlight outside. Fire alarm went off about 4 hours. Police outside handling something. Wall coming off mold on walls. Sorry for the spelling my review keeps getting flagged.

Stay away!

The room they gave us was atrocious. It was filthy and the tobacco stench was unbearable. The street was very noisy, even around midnight. We couldn't stay there and I had to call another hotel and booked the room there. Hotels.com should do something about this: the photos they have on the website don't show the condition of the hotel and the rooms. The worst experience we had in years.

So nasty. We had to switch rooms when we first got there bc of food crumbs in the bed. Our second room seemed fine, but when we got back for the night we saw about five roaches in the span of a minute. We decided to just drive back home. We asked for a refund even if it was a partial one, but because we signed an agreement when we got there we weren't able to get one. Don't go!!!! So bad.
