My toilet wasn't bolted to the floor. The room smells, the power went out for 12 hours with no communication on a resolution or offer of any kind of compensation. I had to prop my door open with a box because if i left, i wouldn't have been able to get back in with no power. The only reason this place survives is because of proximity to the convention center, so i paid $200/night and there's a nice breakfast area, but no food. Plus $19/day to park.

This is an older hotel that is definitely due for some upgrades. I understand that it is an "economy" brand, but I think more could be done to make the place a little more hospitable and pleasant. For starters, the lighting throughout the hotel seemed dim. In my room in the evening, even with every light on, it seemed barely light enough to read. It didn't help that the fixture above one of the beds was missing a bulb or that the fixture in the bathroom was dirty (see pictures). In addition, the carpet, especially in my room seemed past its useful life; worn and dirty. I kept my socks on the entire time I was in the room. The tub also had a stain (see picture). In addition, the sink drained very slowly and the "stopper" did not work. The only legitimate "common" area in the hotel was what looked like a breakfast bar (although there is no breakfast). There was nothing inviting about that space either (fun pictures, newspaper, etc). Yes, I saved a few dollars by staying here, but if I am ever in the area again, I will spend the money to stay at a nicer property.
