You get what you pay for. Money was tight for me. If you a heavy sleeper and don’t wake up to the receptionist arguing with the homeless at 3am that are right outside the hotel and just for a place to sleep and completely ok people under the influence coming in you should come here. I grew up in that kind of environment so it’s whatever to me. Be warm the reception wakes up at 11am in the back, so if you need to check out early chances are he won’t be there.

The Bay Hotel is surrounded by homeless people and drug users (even in the door). It is not possible to open the hotel door and go out. The smell - both from the weed smoking and urination - is very harsh that it is very difficult to walk on the foot path. Sometimes, it is very scary and not possible to go out after dark. Room and toilet are dirty. In the deep or midnight, the mentioned homeless people on the road are shouting that continuously disturb the entire sleeping. Smell of smoking inside the hotel is also very harsh even suffocating. It is clearly mentioned that breakfast is included but not provided. I strongly feel that they are doing knowingly. Even though, they mention to remove from the webpage, it still appears in the page. This is my first time to drop review or feedback in this way or platform. I strongly feel that I should drop the lines is that other fellows may avoid from such experience or they would book at least knowingly. I wish that I should experience such stuff again.

We checked in to our room and checked out again about 30 mins later. When we entered the room we found a vent hanging out of the ceiling above the bed, right where your head would be. The bedspreads had cigarette burn holes in them, sheets had stains on them, and there was food on the floor - it was disgusting. There was also a chemical smell burning our eyes, the kids were crying. When I requested another room, I was advised there were none available so I * no lift - have to carry cases up a flight of stairs

The room was not clean with holes through the bed sheets and cigarette burns in the walls. I was not given the room I booked as the pictures looked completely different to what I was given. Upon complaints I was only offered a partial refund with the option of checking out early. The street is COVERED with homeless making it feel unsafe at night to walk around the streets. The room smelled of weed and the sink did not properly drain. When booking it said it would provide breakfast but when I got there they said they don’t offer it. No amenities within the room and no windows to open to get rid of the weed smell. Not worth the price what so ever and not worth booking at all.

The staff never showed up when I needed to sleep it was very uncomfortable since all the noise from the street sneaked in and it was very unpleasant to see so many homeless people taking drugs in front of the door and no one did anything to move them to another place traveling with my daughter was a tremendous shock for her to see all this happening without any control

Horrible experience. Multiple loud guests playing loud music at 12AM!!! After hours of this nonsense the receptionist asked them to lower the volume but they did not. Then called hotels.com and they called the owner and he lied and said there was no noise. I then walked in the hallway to prove the ongoing noise to Hotels.com and prove the noise was ongoing. Further more, there was a leak from the ceiling from a shower above... And they only give you a one towel! They offered no refund, and then at checkout they said they didn’t remember my deposit and had me waiting to refund my deposit while the taxi was patiently waiting. This place is not a 2 star hotel, it’s a slum!

I hope I can write "Dump" 🔹fire alarms removed, people were smoking weed or worse 🔹mattress was purse springs and urine spots with holes in the cover 🔹drug addicts were housed there 🔹unsafe neighborhood 🔹Loud screaming and other noises went on through the whole night
Broken sink
Mattress urine stains and holes
Better angle of stains
Mattress cover didn't protect from direct impact by the springs

Upon arrival and inspecting the room and the bed we immediately booked an alternative motel and left. The bed was dirty and had a cigarette burn hole in the bottom sheet. The room was in poor condition and the motel is in a terrible area with numerous drug addicts directly outside and around the location.
