Staying at this hotel was an utter nightmare. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted by a musty, unpleasant odor that screamed of neglect. The room was nothing like what they advertised—scam and false marketing at its best.

Ceiling was caving in in the main bedroom. Door was not sliding properly and in need of repair. Could not use laundry as there was only one machine and the laundry area was quite dirty.
