It was a pretty good place other than the toilet would get clogged and dirty water would come up the bath tub and they couldn’t tell us why. And they never changed our sheets all they would do is flip it around which is weird to me

Disliked: Cleanliness
When I arrived to the hotel you could tell it was in a sketchy area but nothing crazy the room looked clean but at night when I went to get in the bed the sheets were disgusting and looked like they hadn’t been washed. There was other peoples hair and dirt on them and they were stained. I ended up leaving in the middle of the night I was too scared there might be bed bugs.
