Regrettably, I was unable to remain in the hotel room due to the excessive heat. Despite the room’s air conditioning being operational, the temperature in the room was at least 77 degrees Fahrenheit, which only increased. The discomfort and high temperature rendered it uninhabitable. Consequently, I was compelled to depart. I would appreciate compensation for the inconvenience caused.

VERY Dusappointing

Front desk staff only came out when someone was at the front counter, not friendly, not courteous, brusk. Rooms were spartan, heater worked well. Security was sporadic & unfriendly. Parking did not feel secure or safe at night. $8. + for a small soda & a regular size bag of chips??? All paid to another hostile staff member. Not sure if I felt less safe in the hotel or outside in the street ~ VERY disappointing

AC doesn’t work well, it was hot all night and the beds are stiff, quite uncomfortable. But it seems to be the best hotel in town so I’d probably stay again, if I had another event to attend next door. I got the basic king size room. The place is aged but very clean. Water for showering is boiling, which is perfect for me, I’m sure the cold water was just fine for my husband. The bar downstairs was good with seating inside and outside, bartender makes delicious drinks. Last call at 11:15pm. We stayed for one night for a concert in the Adventist Health Arena and it’s literally next door. Parking is included with your room, you get a parking pass. We just walked right over and the hotel and arena area seemed safe enough. The rest of the town is sketchy though, we stopped at a Mexican restaurant El Chilango Chido, it was great and also seemed safe enough! But we pumped gas outside the city lol
