Disappointed

Hotel is not kid friendly. The lounge is the first thing you encounter walking in the lobby. People were intoxicated in the lobby and walking all around the hotel every night. Our 10 and 12 year old daughters were scared each time we walked in. We came back from an outing and found our room door wide open. Spoke to housekeeper on the floor and she said she did not know why it was left open. Fortunately none of our belongings were missing.

The property outdated. The rooms are filthy. I had to switch rooms. The first room would be adequate if I was there for a one stand or to meet a hooker. The second room, the efficiency, had this long grand walk way when you enter the room but to my dismay the actual room was horrible. The furniture looked like it came off the side of the road, the.beds were sunken in, EXTREMELY dusty, you had to run the shower 10 mins before the water got warm, never got hot and the ball staff could do was apologize.

The room was very dirty; the floor, bathroom, sink, toilet, and towels were unclean. The kitchenette had a malfunctioning fridge with three inches of ice. Front desk personnel were bothersome and rude. I stayed because I didn't want to lose the money.
