We couldn't check in when we arrived and staff was not friendly. When we checked in later, there was no one to help with luggage, including on departure. They did not answer their phone, including for accessible people. There was no heat and had to ask for blankets twice. Floors, furniture and bed had scratches and fabric missing, carbon monoxide detector hanging from ceiling.

We travel a lot! This is by far the worst hotel we have ever stayed in. We stayed in their penthouse suite. I have never stayed in a louder more broken down dirty hotel room In my life. Floor tiles lifted to trip on, floors painted on that lift on your feet when you walk on them. The overwhelming loud sound of the elevator rattling the walls every time a floor is called to lift you no matter the hour.

The staff were friendly, but wasn’t impressed with the room. To be fair, we didn’t pay much for the room so low expectations. Regardless, I would not come back here. It was loud, you can hear everything going on in the other rooms and someone was blasting heavy metal music. The hot water in the shower barely worked and there was basically no water pressure. The bathroom was clean but it’s outdated. We were only here for one night. It also happened to be on the day it was cold here and the heat wouldn’t go up past 64 so it was freezing

To begin, the staff at the front desk is absolutely deplorable. We were in a building separate from the building where the lobby is and they continued to give us keys that did not work on our room door. After the third attempt, I tried calling the desk and as like every other time before with calling the front desk, no one answers. Then walking back to the front desk for the fourth time to get replacement room keycards, Nelson was absolutely rude and unhelpful. In addition upon our check-in, we found that the hot water faucet handle on our bathroom sink was nonfunctional. We told them at the front desk and told housekeeping every single day that we had no hot water from the bathroom sink. Yet, as with everything else, they were non-responsive and we never had hot water from the bathroom sink. Bottom line, I would avoid this hotel at all costs.

Woman at front desk was not friendly, barely spoke during check in. Beside table was very wobbly. Shower dripped, towels were threadbare, and the glass wall isn’t long enough so water got all over floor. Could hear the people walking above upstairs so definitely not soundproof. No basic cable, have to login to some streaming service to watch anything. Bed was comfy.

Staff was rude. I made reservations on line and when I got there they charged me walk in rate and I could do nothing about it if I wanted a place to stay. They checked me into a room and when I walked in there was a guy laying in the bed so I had to get assigned a new room. The TV had 12 channels and only 3 in english. Internet was terrible. Had to get a new key card everyday. Band from restaurant was right outside my window and played till 2 am every night. People sitting at the restaurant tables was less than a foot from my window and could hear everything they were saying when the band was not playing. Mini fridge on the floor leaked everywhere. Shower had no door so towels had to be placed around toilet to absorb water. Only mirror and sink was beside bed so to brush your teeth you had to sit on the bed. Only 1 person spoke english and he was on night shift. NO PARKING. Restaurant food was garbage. This place needs shut down immediately. I have no clue how they have stayed in business for 6 months. Oh I forgot GOOD LUCK getting fresh towels unless you want a fee.

Getting into the hotel was a little confusing because they have 2 buidings on the same street and across from eachother. Luckily, a guy who was entering into the building that I was trying to get into told me to go across the street. There was another couple who was also confused so it all worked out. Checking in was stressful because I was on the plane when it was communicated to me that the property does not accept AMEX. Luckily my partner jumped in to save the day. I had been calling the hotel all week but they did not answer their phone. Another nuisance was that I was not provided with my breakfast vouchers upon check in. I checked in at around 10pm so I was told I had to wake up at 7:30 am to get my vouchers. The room was ok...it was not stocked so all we had was a fridge & we did not have a phone so I had to roam to make local calls. Other than that it was a lovely stay. There were many food options and the beach was relatively close by. You could walk or jump on free tram to get there. The hotel had a nice roof top pool with loungers which was nice. We had a balcony facing the main street & the hotel had a daily free happy hour where we could get a free drink. I would definitely return again. Overall Id rate my experience an 8/10.

Waited behind one person in line for about 15 minutes. Another person came up and jumped the line while i was waiting. Was given my room keys and a map, only for the desk person to stop me as i was walking away to tell me that because i have a child with me, they needed to change my room. Gave me keys to a different room. Got to the room and the keys didn’t work.
